This was just an avoidable catastrophe. And we just have to make sure that other young people... aren't actually made vulnerable by the marketing of these companies.

I think that we know what's going on here. You don't have to be Dick Tracey to figure this out.

Will your companies commit to not using these types of materials that could be to particularly appeal to children?

So you agree. Do you agree with that, Mr. Healey?

I am the son of a milkman so I know that technological change can occur.

I would like to move to another example which is the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative across the northeast in terms of the impact that has had in reducing greenhouse gases and at the same time overlapping with an economy across the…

Since the RGGI was put in place, there has actually been a 40 percent reduction in greenhouse gases in those States on average where it was put in place but in addition, it has helped to save consumers money, created jobs, generated over…

EPA's regulation of power plants will bring us immediate health benefits.

The actual truth is, we are seeing climate change right now.

It is unfortunate that marginalized folks, often poor people, are the ones who feel the impact of us doing nothing most.

Thank you. Governor?

The beautiful thing about this is by doing the right thing, we not only will not hurt the economy, but we can actually help to improve the economy.

Maybe you could talk about that issue, about the job creation aspect of this, especially since it seems to be a core argument here using medieval blood letting terms to describe what the impact is since the States in the RGGI have actually…

Interesting--not a blood letting then, is that what you are saying?

I am worried about what is happening in Atlantic City with the oceans rising.

This four decade disregard of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 could halt approval of additional export applications.

Massachusetts is the Bay State, but we are also the ``Brave State.'' But being first in freedom is not enough if we don't put our veterans, their families, and the families of the fallen first as well. There are more than 388,000 veterans…

I was the first in my family to go to college. I drove an ice cream truck to work my way through Boston College as a commuter. I did the same thing to go to law school. I lived at home all the way through college and law school in order to…

I believe that a very broad stakeholder involvement process is critical.

There are concerns that the IP transition will impact vulnerable populations--including seniors, minorities--disproportionately.

It was just 18 years ago, when the Congress passed the Telecommunications Act of 1996. I was the House author, and not one home in America had broadband in February of 1996.

I don't think that is because they like paying two bills.

And the principle definition of the Act was that everything was going to be technology neutral.

So, today, a 12-year old believes that broadband and a 50-inch HD screen is a constitutional right, huh?
