The substance of that proposal has serious flaws, in my opinion.

I want to recognize Vice Chairman Harper as one of the cosponsors of that bill as well as full committee Chairman Walden.

I believe it is our responsibility to fully help the people of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands as they work to repair their damaged electricity grid.

I have been impressed with the responses the committee has received with its inquiries about how covered entities use the 340B Program and it appears that recipients rely on program savings to provide important services to vulnerable…

Twenty-five years ago, Congress passed bipartisan legislation establishing the 340B Program to help healthcare providers expand their capacity to serve their patients.

Some utilities are getting close to 12 percent return on these projects, which, in this economy, is a bit crazy.

This proposal is not about regulation and markets, which is what the Federal Power Act tasked FERC with.

I think greater scrutiny needs to be made, and they need to go revisit their prior decisions on a regular basis to make sure that we are only building the transmission that is actually needed.

Thank you for your kind words and for everything you do for New Jersey's consumers.

A recent report commissioned by American Municipal Power states that more than half of the $24.3 billion in transmission projects in PJM in 2012 were unneeded to comply with the RTO or Federal reliability requirements and were not subject…

We are still--this is a proposal that is not supported by the facts or even by the Secretary's own grid reliability report.

Secretary Perry's proposal represents an unprecedented attempt to usurp policy-making functions that belong to Congress and the States.
