The draft bill would do nothing to address high gas prices, but it would delay significant cost effective health protections required under the Clean Air Act.

I don't think that EPA was totally straightforward with the American people on that issue.

I think to deter cyber criminals, we need to have a really well-coordinated, comprehensive effort that is going to promote R&D, consumer education, supply chain integrity and information and yet ensure at the same time that we speak to…

This proposal also includes an amendment previously offered by Mr. Latta on the House Floor.

Congress on three separation occasions has said no to regulating greenhouse gas under the Clean Air Act.

The Republican budget could decimate the funding for clean energy, and House Republicans have even opposed efforts to penalize oil companies that sit on oil leases and refuse to produce any oil until prices go higher.

I mean, our domestic production is at an 8-year high, and now America is an exporter.

They will pass that money onto consumers.

We would no longer rely on the science to identify bad air days, and instead we would have to decide what level of smog is protective of public health based on what is cost effective and feasible to address.

I am saying that we should not let our economists weigh in on what is and is not healthy air.

High gasoline prices are being caused by rising global demand, tensions in the Middle East, and tight supplies.

Ms. McCarthy, will gutting the Clean Air Act help lower gasoline prices?

Let me be clear. Programs to protect public health and to provide American families with scientifically-credible information about the health of the air in their communities are not the cause of high gas prices.

I urge support for the amendment offered by Representative Eshoo. This is a straightforward amendment that will encourage transparency by requiring entities sponsoring political advertising to disclose the identity of any donors that have…

One of the bills before us contains the Latta Amendment. That is a proposal that will cut the heart out of the Clean Air Act.

Oil imports have fallen from 60 percent to 45 percent. Last year the U.S. became a net exporter of refined products for the first time since 1949.

Millions of Americans are already enjoying savings at the pump with new model year 2012, vehicles.

We could have tighter oversight and regulation of Wall Street speculators to prevent them from artificially driving up the price of gasoline.

And my colleagues, today the House is taking up H.R. 3309, which the Republicans say is a modest proposal to make the Agency operate more efficiently. I could not disagree more strongly. This bill would not reform the FCC. It would disable…

I want to congratulate EPA on the carbon power plant regulation. It is required by the law, and it is a good regulation, and I think it makes a lot of sense to protect our environment and for our economy.

Instead they will block pollution controls, increase health costs for Americans, diminish our energy security, and create pointless new government bureaucracies.

The increase in U.S. production does not lower gas prices.

These are not the answers.

We could repeal the $4 billion per year in Federal subsidies that are currently given to the big oil companies.

the goal if you want to make the economy more resilient to the inevitable rising prices driven by other countries and the inevitable price spikes driven by, you know, disasters or conflict in other countries, is to make this country less…
