America is already at war. We are at war against terrorists and those that support evil. Today we have an important decision to make: Will we continue to finance Saddam Hussein's war machine by buying his oil, or will we support energy independence? I stand here today in support of America and for using America's untapped energy resources. While our sons and daughters bravely fight terrorism, there are those in this Chamber that would have America continue to import almost 60 percent of our oil from terrorist-sponsoring regimes. I urge my colleagues to support a balanced energy plan to secure a terrorist-free America for our future.
