Dan Quayle: “I thank the gentleman. If we actually started to look and invest in those sorts of thing and get our energy independence…”

On the recordMay 11, 2011
I thank the gentleman. If we actually started to look and invest in those sorts of thing and get our energy independence going, we could have charts down on this floor that show job growth. According to CBO, if we pass today's legislation, we will generate $800 million in revenue over 10 years. Combined with the energy initiatives that the House passed last week, these three votes will create an estimated 250,000 jobs in the short term and 1.2 million jobs over the long term. So I urge my colleagues to support this bill and get our economy and our American people back to work. {time} 1610
