We are in a bind now because we can't prepare for this. We are going to cut off oil energy, or we are going to cut off energy from Russia, and we can't backfill it.

I have offered amendments in this Committee asking that we not carry out policies that have a disproportionate impact on Native American communities, on communities of color, on communities of low economic activity.

We have the highest gasoline prices, the highest energy prices in American history right now.

We have a crisis going on in Ukraine and Russia. We have a crisis going on right here in the United States.

Certainty is crucial for investment.

The regulatory barriers that exist today are often caused by a lack of adjustment in regulation.

There are plenty of ways to get transmission built.

If the rest of the nation switches to a solar/wind grid, California won't be able to count on neighboring power plants to make up for losses during regional dips in wind and sunlight availability.

Los Angeles' goal to become 100 percent carbon-free by 2035 will require significant investment.

Big but affordable effort needed for America to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

She did not say that anyone was anti-American. She clearly stated that she was advocating for policies that were anti-American energy policies.

We have seen one of the highest rates of emissions increases last year that we have seen in recent history.

One in every five Americans say they can't even afford to pay their energy bill in full each month.

We have seen energy prices...increase anywhere from 24 to 54 percent.

We certainly share the objective of moving in a direction of improved access to energy, improved affordability to energy, and lower emissions from energy.

It is amazing to me to think that you would come before this Congress. You have crossed so far over from science into political theater, it really undermines your credibility.

I have very strong concerns about ensuring that my children... have the same opportunity that we have had in our lifetime.

I think that the White House and others should have stepped in well before we reached a level of chaos.

The United States has the safest aviation industry in the world. We have the gold standard in safety and innovation.

We need them analyzing the data they are receiving from radio altimeter manufacturers, wireless communication companies, and aircraft manufacturers, and reporting what they have learned about potential interference.

For every ton of emissions we produce in the United States, China has gone up by four. This doesn't make sense.

We have to stop focusing on the source of energy, and instead focus on the emissions.

Cutting production in the United States increases global emissions. Shame on us for not recognizing the flawed approaches of California, what has happened in New England and the UK, where their strategies that some of you are pushing have…

All it does, when we stop domestic production, is increase our dependence upon foreign energy sources with greater emissions.

The law requires that leases happen 'expeditiously.'
