Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank you for the opportunity to address the House tonight. I appreciate the time and consideration that we will have, the opportunity to visit with the American people about some of the biggest issues we are…
Again, thank you for sharing that story with us about a manufacturer of a restaurant--a food business, I guess, operator--that is ready to create jobs if it could just get government out of the way and let it do what it does best, which is…
I thank the gentleman from New York for his time today and his leadership on this important issue. I know you have a young family, as do I, and you're here today to make sure that we talk about those matters that are important to our…
Through the development of dams, hydroelectric power plants and water storage projects, we can preserve the livelihood of rural communities.
We thought that was of great value to build the trust that is necessary to have a functioning program.
The legislation before the Committee today is needed to protect western water projects, hydropower development, and to ensure these projects are compliant with the Endangered Species Act.
The goal is, by 2019, to delist the Humpback Chub, Razorback Sucker, Bonytail, and the Colorado Pikeminnow from ESA restrictions.
This bill finds common ground and ensures ESA protections continue, while giving the Bureau of Reclamation the authorization to continue with this effective and necessary program.
This program keeps water projects operating at high capacity while continuing to protect endangered species.
The legislation before the committee today is needed to protect western water projects, hydropower development, and to ensure these projects are compliant with the Endangered Species Act.

I urge a ``no'' vote. I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Connecticut (Ms. DeLauro). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the ayes…
Again, we have to understand that the best thing that this Congress can do to drive down the price of gasoline is increasing our supply opportunities right here, to drive down the cost of energy by increasing our production right here. I…
This bill is trying to deal with the rising prices of energy by addressing the very important issue of supply and demand. While I think there's nothing wrong with looking into the possibility of market manipulation, I do think this bill is…
I've enjoyed serving on the committee with the gentlelady from California, but I must oppose the amendment. Talking about the process that we're going through on regulations, you know, this is the very heart of the bill, to understand the…
I seek time in opposition to the amendment. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Colorado is recognized for 5 minutes.
The gentlelady is correct on one point: that it is up to us. It is up to us to protect and defend the middle class. It's up to us to work toward the development of American jobs. It's up to us to reduce the reliance on foreign oil. It's up…
I thank my colleague from Colorado for giving me the time on this amendment. I want to tell a little story. A year ago, I had the opportunity to visit a hydraulic fracturing site in my district, a county called Weld County in northern…
Again, analyzing rules is part of its job. That's part of the EPA's job. It's part of the DOE's job. The DOE has a budget in excess of $26 billion. In fact, we found out just a couple of days ago that one program at the Department of…
