"I want to welcome everyone to today's hearing entitled 'Investing in America's Energy Infrastructure: Improving Energy Efficiency and Creating a Diverse Workforce.'"
"H.R. 1315 is in essence a jobs bill designed to train underserved groups, including women, minorities, veterans, unemployed energy workers, and returning citizens."
"This bill would provide much-needed assistance to State Energy Offices to plan for and respond to energy disruptions from both physical and cyber threats."
"It is my hope that following today's hearing my Republican colleagues will finally agree to discuss actual substance with my office so we can move this much-needed bill forward."
