Jim Risch actually said...

To me, when I got here and heard about this law--and by the way, this law was not very well vetted out in the public--that they were going to put these mercury bulbs in every home, in every school in America, in hospitals . . . has anybody looked at the EPA recommendations put out January 11, 2011 as to what you should do if one of these mercury light bulbs breaks in your home?

Context

Risch questions the lack of public vetting for mercury bulb regulations.
