Thomas R. Carper: “Downwind States need cooperation from our upwind neighbors and EPA if we are ever to have truly healthy air to breathe.”

We need to reform it.

Given how important this obviously is, my only regret is that we didn't have an opportunity to talk about it 24 hours ago.

Last year, the Environment and Public Works Committee held, I think, not one, but a couple of hearings on permitting, common theme at our hearings, on the importance of public engagement.

I hope is that the issues we just discussed... we can keep at it today and see if we can't find a way to yes.
