Frank Lautenberg: “I believe in equity and balance. That's what I like to see.”

Thank you for scheduling this hearing to consider the re-nomination of Dr. Allison Macfarlane to be Chairwoman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

We must meet this challenge with our full commitment.

One of our top priorities will be completing the work of Wall Street Reform Act by providing Federal regulators the resources they need.

It is time that we give them the resources they need to keep us safe.
