We need to acknowledge PFAS as an environmental hazard and conduct much-needed research.

I'm proud to co-sponsor Congresswoman Debbie Dingell's PFAS Action Act, an expansive bill to regulate, cleanup PFAS contamination.

I am proud of my home state of New Jersey for being the first in the nation to set PFAS drinking water standards.

It truly is. And as you know, as you chair your subcommittee and hear, I'm sure, from far too many families about as the difficulties of childcare grow, the difficulties of being a fully deployable force like our United States Navy grow…

They're incredibly necessary, certainly in Northern Jersey, and other areas across the country.

Unfortunately, our forecasts were not as accurate as they can be, and that's due in large part to outdated precipitation data.

While we can credit science for the rapid development of multiple effective vaccines to combat COVID-19, extreme heat has only worsened.

What steps can Congress take to ensure Federal agencies are properly engaging in the spectrum management process?

We need to take them too.

Sure. So as you know, the people in my district pay State and local taxes, and that is what funds our great public school system. New Jersey has the best public school system for 2 years running in the Nation; types of things like that…

There's been an increase in incidents targeting the United States, its people, and its infrastructure from a number of adversaries.

The victories of the Defense Intelligence Enterprise aren't always known to our fellow citizens.

I want to thank you for your service as well as to extend my appreciation to all the members of the Defense Intelligence Enterprise.

The oceans are not just important to our coastal communities. They are important to our inland communities as well, as they sustain all life on our planet.

I do want to recognize Rep. Bonamici, who has been such a leader in really protecting our oceans and looking for forward-thinking legislation.

Oceans are a major part of the solution to the climate crisis.

Algal blooms are something I'm deeply concerned about as well, so I'm happy to discuss a further hearing on that topic.

The gaps in actionable climate risk information are impacting communities like the ones I represent.

Climate change is increasingly an acute, costly reality for businesses and communities across the country.

I look forward to continuing this subcommittee's bipartisan work to advance our understanding of the Earth system.

I introduced two bills to tackle the challenge of flooding and improve climate risk information.

I look forward to continuing this Subcommittee's bipartisan work to advance our understanding of the Earth system and support science that empowers us to confront the pressing challenges that we face with the climate crisis.

I will continue to advocate for them until we have completed Gateway.

This project will create thousands of jobs, and create significant new efficiencies that will help to power our economic recovery.

The Gateway is not just a local or regional issue. It is critically important to the entire Nation's transportation network and economic health.
