"Sen. Dorgan and I yesterday introduced the Travel Promotion Act of 2009."
"I am concerned with a few pieces here."
"I understand the EPA is looking at both direct greenhouse gas emissions and indirect emissions from land use changes."
"I always thought it was ironic that we had something like 37 States that had started their own greenhouse gas registry together because the Federal Government had failed to act."
"I can tell you I was sitting here thinking about the change the COPS program made in the county where I was a chief prosecutor, Hennepin County."
"You also have the $225 million Byrne Competitive Grant program."
"I appreciate the leadership you have shown at the EPA and the integrity you are working to restore to the office."
"We are concerned that this is speculative to look at this and would be very difficult to do on an evidence based method."
"Does that tend to be an indicator that there is some glimmer of hope here?"
"That is what led us in Congress to extend unemployment benefits, something that we always did in the past."
"I believe having judges with real-world front-line experience as prosecutors is a good thing."
