John Shimkus actually said...

"I appreciate that we are having a hearing on chemical management and I want to congratulate you for calling this hearing."

"there should be no differentiation between how we treat our workers and how we protect them, in my view."

"Would it be fair to say that to get a full picture of what is necessary to understand worker chemical safety you must understand the role of OSHA and its relationship with the EPA?"

"I hope that you will convene a future hearing to give this committee time to more thoroughly inspect what is happening to new chemicals under TSCA."
