“Thank you very, very much. I don't think anyone could say it any better than that. I appreciate as well your comments about coal because in my district, I have the only working coal mine in Missouri. In Missouri, 85 percent of our energy comes from coal. It is an extremist agenda that would raise the price of energy unnecessarily, especially on the hardest hit Americans whose hours are being cut back because of other policies from this country coming forth, and whose paychecks are shrinking. Why would you artificially raise the cost of their electric bills due to regulations that aren't even scientifically based and shut off a major source of energy in this country that is affordable, reliable, safe, and clean--and that is coal. Thank you very much for sharing that. Now I would like to go to my friend from Oklahoma, James Lankford, to hear his thoughts about EPA and how it is hurting Americans and how we can provide better solutions.”
