“Will the gentleman yield? I know the gentleman from New York, Mr. Tonko, knows a great deal about this whole issue of energy security and of creating a new energy economy. And when we passed the Recovery Act, we made this single biggest investment in changing our economy to a clean energy economy ever in the history of this country. And I saw it directly. I went out to a company called Ktech that's at the Sandia Science and Tech Park in my district, and they are using Recovery Act grants to figure out new ways to store energy and to seam together a new grid that includes putting renewables into the system, unique storage devices, and how to manage all of that so that our entire grid is more secure and so that we can put people back to work in those new energy technologies. And I'd yield back to Mr. Tonko or Ms. Wasserman Schultz.”
