Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise to support the Inflation Reduction Act. This bill is a monumental achievement that will move America forward, making important advances in everything from healthcare costs to energy prices to tax fairness. Coming from North Carolina, a State battered with increasing regularity by catastrophic storms, I am especially proud that this act represents the most significant investment to combat climate change in U.S. history. I am also pleased that this bill includes a measure that I have championed, which will end the prior moratorium on offshore wind. The Trump administration basically banned North Carolina from taking advantage of industrial-scale offshore wind. Our utilities support it, it is good for our economy, and it is good for our environment. This is an important, game-changing bill.”
