First, I remind my colleagues that Donald Trump called the Saudis and said to please do everything they can to raise the oil price because gasoline is so cheap, and they did. I appreciate them keeping the gas price up. In the words of a…
I thank the chairman for granting me more time because there is still so much silliness left in this bill. I will shift now to the elimination of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. Let's talk about what this program does. This program…
