Despite the overwhelming science showing that climate change poses a real threat to our communities, the majority in the Senate continues to oppose doing anything meaningful to stop climate change or to reduce our carbon emissions.

This is not an issue about money; this is an issue about lives lost.

That storm came just a year after two other devastating storms, Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee, which also ravaged the Northeast.

Please consider the whole country when you write legislation.

Obviously climate change is real, it is here, and humans have a very significant role to play in it.

We have a fundamental responsibility in this committee to protect our communities from the harm caused by human made climate change.

I rise to strongly oppose this cynical and opportunistic ploy to fulfill a longtime ideological goal to defund Planned Parenthood. Let's talk facts, not rhetoric. The fact is no Federal funds can be used for an abortion. No Federal funds…

I'm so grateful for your attention to this issue and your commitment to this issue.
