"I urge my colleagues to support this amendment."

"I also don't understand why in the new Vitter substitute there is not even a mention of asbestos."

"Asbestos, a lethal substance, is still legal in the U.S., even though it has been banned in most developed nations."

"When all the dust settles and everyone has a chance to read this bill, without this amendment, there are no deadlines to act on a chemical that is dangerous."
