Henry Waxman actually said...

"This bill sets a different standard for critical public health and environmental standards to be determined under law by the Environmental Protection Agency."

"As Congressman Waxman explained in his opening statement, the ratio between the cost and the benefits, the benefits exceed the cost by several orders of magnitude in almost all of these rules."

"I think it is part of the reason that we have this bill, have somebody besides the EPA taking a look at these issues."

"The benefits of most important rules dwarf the costs."
