We have an increasing amount of battery storage that is helping keep our grid working.

It is amazing, this alchemy, this magic, we have been able to achieve in California, contrary to all of the anti-renewable doom and gloom.

The story of economic development for most of our country's history is that people with money and power who were always White did what they wanted, and the impacts were born by people without money and power who were generally Black…

Let's keep in mind, we have a climate crisis out there, and there is an enormous cost of making this transition too slowly.

How can we not see the racism even if some of it is not overt or intentional? The disproportionate impacts are so obvious.

Anything more the Federal Government can do to ensure that tribes and other EJ communities have the resources and support they need to take advantage of these opportunities?

Several of our GOP colleagues are incredulous that Democrats see racial impacts in the way our environmental policy has worked for most of our history and they want us to stop talking so much about race and disparate impacts and…

tribal concerns were nowhere on the map for our colleagues.

I had the honor of hosting Secretary Deb Haaland on a tour of California's north coast.

Incorporating Indigenous leadership and traditional ecological knowledge in mainstream environmental institutions actually leads to better outcomes for everyone.

I thank the gentlewoman from Florida and my other colleagues for their kind words about our friend, my predecessor and our former colleague, Lynn Woolsey. Lynn is a one-of-a-kind, barrier-breaking trailblazer and a lifelong advocate for…

Continuing with lease sales without taking the time to fully interrogate whether or how the enabled extraction will fit with our nation's future is reckless and irresponsible.

Dredging, of course, is a priority for all of us in our districts, but how we do it really matters, especially in sensitive habitats.

We clearly need to build our climate resilience within the San Francisco Bay and our wetlands and on our rivers.

Would you agree that we could do much better by the environment and by the natural solutions we need for sea level rise and flood protection and other priorities if we could find a way to beneficially reuse all of this material?

The Petaluma River was silted in, pretty much unnavigable.

We are finally unlocking the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund, as Chair DeFazio so eloquently talked about.

It is great that WRDA is something that we have been able to do under Democratic and Republican majorities.

We have got to raise Highway 37, and there is going to be an enormous need for beneficial reuse so that we can use natural solutions to provide all sorts of priorities.

One of the big challenges we have, even when we unlock the funding for the Corps to do these projects, is the lack of dredging capacity on the west coast.

I was pleased to hear how Red Lake worked with the Corps, something that hasn't always happened, and they appear to be negotiating in good faith, government-to-government consultation.

I want to thank our witnesses for their perspectives on the relative success of these cleanup projects, and how we can help frontline communities not just ensure that they are safe from toxic contamination, but also make sure that…

I think you are taking great liberties with the term 'net zero' when you are talking about burning natural gas and then using the CO2 that you can mostly capture through that process and then just going out and developing more oil to be…

The problem I have with representing this as a breakthrough is that right now, adding new renewables to generate electricity is actually cheaper than natural gas electricity that doesn't capture the carbon.

I want to thank the Dean of the House, Congressman Don Young, for his decades of leadership on marine fisheries management.
