House Republicans have yet to bring up a single bill that meaningfully addresses the climate crisis, not a single one.

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 the motion to recommit will be followed by…

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: Ms. Kamlager-Dove of California moves to recommit the bill H.R. 3397 to the Committee on Natural…

I have been getting Killers of the Flower Moon vibes up here in this Committee today when it comes to some of the tribal interrogatory questions that have been asked of you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And thank you, Secretary. I just have to commend you on your grace and your temperament.

I urge you to give all communities a seat at the table, not just the ones that fit your narrative.

When President Biden took office, he made a pledge to close the book on the climate denialism of the previous administration.

Nothing could be further from the truth. American oil and gas production is at all-time highs.

There is harm, not just from an environmental justice standpoint, but from a livelihood and a cultural standpoint.

This is bipartisanship at work. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Big Oil has gotten very good at passing the costs of their business onto the public.

This final rule is a great step in the right direction.

I will say this Committee does love to pick on California, but that is OK. We have thick skin.

The future of energy must be sustainable and equitable for all communities.

I am so concerned I am planning to send a letter to BOEM requesting that they finally end the practice of categorically excluding offshore rigs from environmental reviews.

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 216, nays 200, not voting 16, as follows: [Roll No. 95]…

There is so much to fact check and so little time. My colleagues have mentioned bonding proposals, but the BLM's bonding proposal would help ensure that oil and gas foot the bill for cleaning up their messes, not the American people. By…

Communities living closest to oil and gas production, mostly low-income and people of color, are left paying the costs of constant pollution and public health crises. We are all paying for the record number of billion-dollar climate…

This article shows that living within a mile of a fracked well directly increases the risks of children developing leukemia. They are not children from the radical left. They are children from across the country. The study warns that…

I include in the Record an article from the Yale School of Public Health, published in ScienceDirect in response to the statements of my colleague on the other side of the aisle that fracking is safe and that it is safe for nearby…

In 2015 the Obama administration published a rule regulating fracking on public lands, and I should mention that the rule was not a ban on fracking, but a commonsense requirement that companies disclose what chemicals they are using. It…

I ask my colleagues to look at the balance sheets of all of these Big Oil executives. No one is waiting in a food line. No one is trying to cash an unemployment check. They have the money, and they will be getting more because of these…

My Republican colleagues always want to bash California, and then they find ways to sneak into the State to visit. California is bringing it today as it relates to H.R. 6009. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from California…
