EPA continues to work on a regular basis with the State of Pennsylvania in its role, which is a role of oversight.

It's hard for those of us in small business to sit back and watch all that's going on and the burdens that are being placed in front of you to create jobs

I start to wonder of government overregulating and being so involved in a business that it makes it very difficult to operate a business profitably.

I think the most important thing that John Stilley has done, he has been such an important part of our community with job creation and also land reclamation.

So to say that, really, the decisions were not made by the Treasury Department--these are all folks that were appointed, in fact, by this administration.

I think today the most important thing we can understand about this hearing is it is not about Democrats and it is not about Republicans, it is about the American people.

I will comment, I am a Chevrolet dealer. The main purchasers of Chevrolet Volts are not the American public.

The decisions were not made by the Treasury Department--these are all folks that were appointed, in fact, by this administration.

Those people should never have been treated like that.

I have to tell you, I was there, I walked the walk, and I know people who lost not only their dealerships, but they took another exit, too.

To me picking and choosing winners and losers is absolutely up to the free market, it is not up to the government.

I have to tell you, when I see this type of thing going on and we told the public, geez, General Motors is working so hard and they are paying back all the money. What we didn't tell them was they were using taxpayer money to…

The biggest losers in this whole thing, the American taxpayer.

I will tell you this was not a good program. It did in fact pick winners and losers. It did in fact use taxpayer money.

I will take those odds. I will take those odds.

You don't have a snowball's chance in hell of making it.

It is up to me and it is up to the people, the 100-and-some people that work with me every day.

I refuse to give up my franchise.

It is not about Democrats and it is not about Republicans, it is about the American people.

I think the unintended consequences of poor policies and procedures and failed strategies--at some point, somebody has to be held accountable for these things.

It is now up to all of us to put honor first and to remain always faithful in the quest for justice.

What you are doing is you are favoring one bidder over another.

I've watched it happen. I've lost out on too many bids where there was exclusionary language in there.

So if that's part of what the proposal is, that's not really trying to get to the best price.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. And I'm trying to understand--and believe me, I'm not coming here representing Republicans, and I hope that this panel isn't about Republicans versus the Democrats.
