"judicial review is an extremely important part and can be done in a timely way, but allows for a more open, transparent process."

"The Endangered Species Act has been an extremely important policy of this country and has achieved a great deal in restoring species in delisting."

"Judicial review is checks and balances in our system, and because we have strong checks and balances, it makes for a much more open process."

"Let's make sure that we have adequate funding so that the Endangered Species Act can in fact work."
