When EPA asserted the right to withdraw the specification of a disposal site for a Section 404 permit after issuance of it by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson, who was in fact appointed to the Bench…
I am glad Chairman Lamborn hosted this important hearing today on the Obama Administration's abuse of executive power.
Today is about a reckless Administration and an agency that believes it is above the law as they crusade against domestic jobs and domestic energy.
Should the Administration win this case and grant EPA the power to retroactively revoke permits, it would destroy all certainty in permitting for projects across the country.
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of title XIII, add the following new section: SEC. 1303. LIMITATION ON AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR…
The term that's used for this program is the Cooperative Threat Reduction Program. Russia has to cooperate. When they're turning around and supporting regimes like Syria with, we think, $1 billion worth of weapons transfers last year…
I thank the gentleman from Texas. I do have the honor of representing Colorado Springs in my congressional district, which has the Missile Defense Agency and some of these other important assets for our Nation's defense, and I totally…
My amendment bans cooperative threat reduction funds going to Russia unless the Secretary of Defense, with the Secretary of State, first, can certify that the Russians are no longer supporting the Syrian regime, and, secondly, are not…
Thank you, Representative. You do such a great job representing New Mexico, and you know so much about energy issues and financial institutions, issues like that as well. But this is a great forum. I thank you for organizing this and your…
I commend you for what your tribe has done, the people, and how they have benefitted from that.
The mismanagement of these lands and that trust has a tragic history in our nation.
Unfortunately, too often the development of those resources is hindered on federal lands by burdensome and unreliable policies of the federal government.
The fracturing rule being put forward by the Department will in my opinion continue this historic mismanagement by putting tribal lands at a clear disadvantage to the private lands next door.
I appreciate your and Mr. Young's long commitment to tribal issues and specifically the focus that you have given on the important issue of energy and energy development on tribal lands.
I want to add my voice to those here today concerned that the tribal consultation on this rule and other rules under development by this Administration has failed to be fair, transparent and adequate.
I am seeing a lot of risk in the Administration's plan for the nuclear stockpile.
Should that commitment not be fulfilled in the future, should that lead to a discussion of withdrawing from the treaty?
The energy and mineral programs under the jurisdiction of this subcommittee bring in the most revenue to the federal treasury behind the IRS.
How can you say it is everywhere when it is actually two to three percent? I just do not understand that.
It seems to me it would be a cost factor that will either get passed onto the ultimate consumers.
Cutting or eliminating funding for fish and wildlife management, not charging industry proper fees nor collecting market based royalty rates, and removing protections for clean air, clean water, and healthy environment will not fix our…
The economic security of our nation is directly dependent on developing our own domestic resources that we are lucky enough to have within our borders.
