Thomas R. Carper: “I want to ask unanimous consent to submit for the record a variety of materials that relate to today's budget hearing.”

I think that's really disgraceful, and it's unacceptable that the local DC courts have vacancies that last years because the Senate fails to act in a timely way.

justice delayed is justice denied.

I think the greatest way that the Commission can have an impact on that is probably through our rate-making authority.

I want to thank our members for being here today.
