The Clean Water Act and many other environmental measures have been weaponized to stop people from doing most things.

So, to replace 65 percent of the locomotives by 2030, no way, right?

So, let's shift gears to high-speed rail in California, one of my favorite things to talk about since it is such a boondoggle and a rat hole in my home State.

I am pretty big on the privacy side, sir. So, I think let's design a system where people aren't being followed around even more so just for the Government to take money from them, right.

Last year, we were able to fill San Luis Reservoir 100 percent. This year, there was a vast amount, like 95 percent, of cut-down in running the pumps.

So, better water years typically result in better fish runs is a pretty safe conclusion, I would say.

Well, my understanding is that it does depend on how good or bad the pool level is.

What we are looking at is the dam removal project so far is a disaster.

Now, if you were a miner, if you were anybody else, that would probably be life in prison for what they are doing there.

But that costs a lot of money to the taxpayers. We always say Government needs to do something. It is the taxpayers that pays for all of this.

We are turning our economy up on its head because of CO2 and the hype that is being made by all the regulators on this.

CO2 is not a poisonous gas unless you breathe 100 percent of it. It is ridiculous, what is going on here.

It just seems, about the only thing that we hear about, in committee, on the floor, is CO2, climate change, all the time--hounded, hounded, hounded.

And now they want to electrify everything from your car or your truck to your barbecue, OK? Because it is just a fad now.

I always tell people, don't do what California does, it will just cost you.

The Republicans didn't leave those pieces of legislation that Reagan and others have signed. They left us, OK?

So, we are hellbent on forcing people into electric cars with minerals and metals that aren't even available.

Let me throw a couple questions here quick to Mr. Fisher and Mr. Stein.

A stationary fuel source that you can control 24/7.

Let's not forget small modular nuclear reactors could be ideal in the right setting, too.

The casino doesn't really fit within the spirit or actually comply with the law, harms other tribes, and should be rejected by the Department.

We greatly appreciate the leadership of Representative Fischbach, Representative LaMalfa and Representative Thompson for the introduction of the HEN Act.

I am here today to express Delta's strong support for the HEN ACT and to thank Congresswoman Fischbach, Congressman LaMalfa, and Congressman Thompson for their leadership on this critical piece of legislation.

Farmers like the current conservation programs that are out there, EQIP and the others, but this new one here is going to require them to jump through hoops in order to maybe be competitive or not.
