Mr. Chair, I am glad to hear the gentleman's concern for projects that are awaiting approval, but for the past year, we have seen huge projects that were already approved that were under construction. In one case, the Revolution Wind…
Jared Huffman
The Public Record

A member of the Democratic Party, Huffman has focused on issues such as environmental protection, healthcare, and education during his tenure in Congress. He has been an advocate for science-based policy and has emphasized the importance of government support for scientific research and public safety initiatives.
Mr. Speaker, again, the plan that this resolution targets for disapproval is not in place. It has been rescinded by the Trump administration. If ever there is a case for a misapplication of the CRA, it would be this right here. I think…
Mr. Speaker, it occurs to me that as we are having this debate, pretty much the rest of the world is in Brazil right now for the climate conference. Of course, the Trump administration has disgracefully pulled the United States out of the…
I strongly oppose this resolution. The three Congressional Review Act resolutions that we have been considering here today are going to strip local land managers of the ability to respond to future challenges, changes, and needs in the…
I strongly oppose H.J. Res. 131. The Congressional Review Act resolution here would overturn BLM's Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Leasing Program Record of Decision. My Republican colleagues are, once again, pursuing policies that expand our…
I strongly oppose all three of these Congressional Review Act resolutions on the floor because the reality is that these would overhaul years of public input. They would silence Tribal voices and erase science-based planning, all so that…
People nationwide depend on NOAA for free, accurate forecasts, severe weather alerts, and emergency information.
Purging the government of scientists, experts, and career civil servants and slashing fundamental programs will cost lives.
I demand a recorded vote. A recorded vote was ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 211, noes 206, not voting 16, as follows: [Roll No. 122] AYES--211…
The gentlewoman is right about one thing: Democrats are outraged because as this President is crashing the global economy, careening us into recession, destroying retirement plans and 401(k)'s, driving up costs for American families on…
I have a motion to recommit at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit. The Clerk read as follows: Mr. Huffman of California moves to recommit the bill H.R. 276 to the Committee on Natural Resources…
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 203, nays 213, not voting 16, as follows: [Roll No. 121] YEAS--203 Adams Aguilar Amo Ansari Auchincloss…
It torches clean air and water protections, hands over our public lands to polluters at fire-sale prices, and rigs the rules so oil executives can rubber-stamp their own permits in secret.
A Congress that more and more appears to just be a joke, is now advancing a bill that literally started off as a joke.
The Trump Tax Scam forces oil and gas lease sales — no matter the cost — even on lands tribes, ranchers, and local communities have fought to protect.
If Big Oil, Wall Street, and MAGA cultists locked themselves in a room to write a wish list, this bill would be it.
This resolution, H.J. Res. 78, continues a very familiar pattern that we are seeing from this Republican majority: distractions and scapegoats instead of dealing with real crises, real problems, and solutions to the challenges that are…
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 15- minute vote on passage of H.J. Res. 78 will be followed by a…
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members will record their votes by electronic device. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 15-minute vote on passage of S.J. Res. 11 will be…
Let's talk about this claim of a double standard and of hypocrisy. Oh, the poor fossil fuel industry is being singled out. Poor Big Oil with its record profits and its record exports and its executive bonuses and its collusion with OPEC to…
Purging the government of scientists, experts, and career civil servants and slashing fundamental programs will cost lives.
I know that many of my colleagues are eager to sit in and express our profound opposition to everything going on.
Republicans plan to do more favors for Big Oil even though they are rolling in record profits and even though we are already producing and exporting record amounts of oil and gas. Of course, their old favorite is to open up the Arctic…
I thank the gentleman for yielding. In just 4 weeks, Donald Trump has sown chaos all over this country. His administration is defying court orders, firing Federal workers, freezing vital funding that our constituents depend on, impacting…
Now they have reached NOAA where they’re wreaking havoc on the scientific and regulatory systems that protect American families’ safety and jobs.
