Cleaning up dirty diesel emissions provides us with an opportunity to walk across the aisle.

The Public Record
I look forward to working with my colleagues to reduce toxic diesel emissions that threaten our communities and our children.
Thanks for your encouragement and for your good stewardship and for setting a good example for the rest of us.
My colleagues and I were sent to Washington to govern and to find common-sense solutions to the challenges facing our Nation.
Well, here you have two issues where people have come together: DERA, which has a track record of people coming together and reaching across the aisle; and clean construction, where at least two of the major stakeholders that are involved…
1 percent of the cost of a small set of projects is a reasonable price to ensure that fewer Americans die from diesel soot.
These rules, taken together with the agency's greenhouse gas requirements, could cost families and businesses over $300 Billion by 2015.
An idea that came from my friend Sen. Voinovich, DERA is one of the most cost-effective clean air Federal programs.
