Public lands and the stewardship that it requires is not a partisan issue. It is an American issue.
If we want to balance the budget, this is a starting point of what a balanced budget would look like.
If you are going to operate on public land, then the public should have a say because we are all stewards of our public lands.
This budget would be devastating to our national parks, wildlife refuges and other public lands, and it betrays the Secretary's trust responsibility to Native tribes.
My intention, so you know, is we're going to rewrite the rule and go through the complete public process on it because both you and I agree on this issue that flaring is a waste.
The budget gives us a very clear indication of President Trump's and Secretary Zinke's priorities.
The budget does not favor one energy solution over another, nor does it favor extraction over non-extraction.
Ma'am, I don't drag my feet. I just, I don't operate that way. As far as the law goes, I support the law, as we all should, that's my obligation to do so.
I am absolutely committed to making sure that every kid has a great education, in particular, to some of our Indian nations.
