But I mean were there any OIG audits?

I certainly agree with healthcare leaders that say that the administration should retract its regulation because family planning policies shouldn't be--should be driven by facts, evidence, and necessity, not politics and ideology.

Well I understand what you are saying but I mean the problem is you know you go in to do these proposed rules, you are trying to say, accomplishing something which we don't even know whether or not there is a problem.

Today's hearing focuses on two legislative proposals to improve pipeline safety in America.

Interim storage is the best near-term solution to stop the nuclear waste stalemate.

Product safety is not a partisan issue.

This bill prioritizes the removal of spent nuclear fuel from decommissioned nuclear plants in areas with large populations and high seismic hazard.

I thank our witnesses for being here today and look forward to your testimony.

My friend and Republican leader of this subcommittee, John Shimkus, led the work in the House to pass the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act by a vote of 340 to 72.

I appreciate your moving forward on examining legislative reforms that can help to restart this process.

The more money diverted from that fund to interim storage, the more ratepayers - or taxpayers - will have to pay in the future for permanent disposal.
