The Biden administration in 1 year, by their own admittance, has added $200 billion of new regulatory cost.

It plainly misses the mark.

I think it is kind of hypocritical that you can pick and choose who you consult with, and it is disappointing.

H.R. 2021, titled the 'Environmental Justice For All Act,' as sponsored by the Chairman, truthfully is a legislative vehicle for more of the same from this Majority.

You are the mayor of the community, the community in which the Willow Project will be put forward, and in the spirit of environmental justice and consultation, you as the community leader were never consulted on the project.

It is very concerning when we have folks coming up talking about environmental justice and consultation and you have a community that was never consulted on the master development plan for the Willow Project.

To disclose the true impacts we were asking the Interior Department to do is a legitimate thing.

The hypocrisy here on this particular project is astounding because of not having consultation...

The mayor of the community has said he was not consulted.

This bill also creates new fees on oil, gas, and coal industries and creates another government payout scheme.

We are suffocating small business with these overburdensome regulations that some unelected bureaucratic thinks is a good idea.

When Americans are getting gouged at the pump, it doubles down on their pain by increasing the cost of production.

The bill also creates new fees on oil, gas, and coal industries, and creates another government payout scheme.

I thank the congressman for this Special Order. It is needed and I appreciate the time. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to discuss the devastating fentanyl crisis that is wreaking havoc on our communities and our families. The hardest thing I…

The U.S. government has long known of the dangers of climate change and can no longer act in a manner that ignores that a climate emergency exists.

It is a fact that a barrel of oil from the Gulf or elsewhere in America is far and away cleaner than our rival exporters like OPEC, plus Russia, or even Canada.

I could speak for hours about this administration's multiple failures over the last year, but I only have a couple of minutes, so I will cover just inflation, one of them. Since Joe Biden took office, inflation has risen every single…

And despite this unprecedented success, President Biden listened to his radical base and banned oil and gas development on his very first day in office, contributing to skyrocketing gas prices and crippling inflation.

Between 2005 and 2020, the United States decreased its CO2 emissions by 24 percent, while global emissions grew by 14 percent.

Just like previous hearings, the Majority is making an active choice to include U.S. in the title, and consciously choosing to ignore a holistic, global view of carbon.

So, let's be clear about what we are talking about when we consider oil and gas development in the Gulf. We are talking about affordable energy, low emissions, and funding for our treasured conservation efforts.

Mr. Stauber, thank you, I have an article that I would like to enter into the record.

I completely respect the work that you are doing to recover these taxpayer dollars but it is beyond me that my colleagues on the other side of the aisle still are trying to ram through their Build Back Broke program to increase the funds…

Eighty-four billion dollars, Mr. Ware, is exactly what we need you to find and hold these people accountable, so we need your advocacy.

It should be troubling to everyone here that as families are struggling with inflation, higher energy bills and the supply chain crisis, that their hard-earned tax dollars are not being stripped away to pay criminals for fraud.
