Political Quotes

“Madam President, I am speaking to S. 3373, the hydropower license extension, which helps a lock on the Red River and Overton Lock projects. This bill is incredibly important to Louisiana. Hydropower is reliable, safe, and responsible; and the Federal Government should be enabling projects, not standing in the way. Today's actions are bipartisan, pro-job and pro-American energy. I am glad to see Congress cut the redtape holding up the Red River and Overton Lock projects. These hydropower projects have been negatively impacted by supply chain issues the last 4 years. They simply need more time to start construction. I am very pleased to see this get across the finish line. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Wyoming.”
