I think oversight as the system is implemented both to ensure that all stakeholders are fully participating but also to be sure that as a system, architecture is built up.

I think that drug counterfeiting is a terrible problem that we need to address in a bipartisan fashion.

one of the easiest ways to improve TSCA would be to allow the EPA to request testing by order than rulemaking

we are working together very well on this TSCA reauthorization
