"I want to associate myself with the remarks of Senator Hutchison. I am proud to cosponsor the Lease Act with her."

"By passing this legislation, we will ensure that all moratorium-impacted leases are extended."

"It used to be, basically, you submitted your permit and within 30 or 60 days, you got a yes or a no."

"But the bottom line is we need to step it up, or these numbers are going to get worse, not better."
