And on the other side? The PRESIDING OFFICER. Senator Hoeven controls 67 minutes and Senator Landrieu controls 32 minutes.

Forty years. When we look at the universe, we are here a very short time. He always thought about our kids and grandkids because that is what our job is. We are so fortunate that we had a life in America that gave us the opportunity with…

I thank the Senator from Massachusetts. He calls it the Keystone ``export'' pipeline, and that is exactly right. I call it the Keystone ``extra lethal'' pipeline given the type of pollutants that come with this oil. At this time, I ask…

While we are waiting for Senator Whitehouse--he is on his way--I want to focus the attention of those who are watching this debate on truly what we are talking about. If this was about building a pipeline that was carrying something that…

I ask unanimous consent that the Committee on Environment and Public Works be authorized to meet during the session of the Senate on November 18, 2014, to conduct a business meeting where we would have three votes for two TVA members and…

I am about to yield to Senator Cardin. A point I want to make is this is an interesting debate. The proponents have said for years: Build the pipeline because we need the oil here. Then confronted with the fact that the oil will not stay…

How many remain on the proponents' side? The PRESIDING OFFICER. They control 62 minutes. The Senator from Louisiana still has 32 minutes, so they have a total of 94 minutes.
