Thank you, Secretary Kerry. You are serving in very challenging times and you are doing it so well.
I want to put in information from the U.S. Energy Information Administration showing that California's electricity bill is far lower than Oklahoma's and that we are prospering because we have taken on climate change and have cheaper costs…
I often say in all the years I have been in office, a long time, no one ever complained that the air was too clean.
The President's proposal will enable America to lead the way to avert the most calamitous impacts of climate change.
The Supreme Court in that last case... confirmed the Clean Air Act covers carbon pollution.
I believe this not an Administration gone rogue. This is an Administration following the Clean Air Act.
Do not tell me that if you move forward on clean air, you destroy the economy or destroy your budget. It is quite the opposite.
Relying upon substantial scientific evidence, EPA determined that man-made climate change threatens both public health and public welfare.
