I have tremendous respect for my colleague that just spoke, but I have to say that this idea that electric vehicles are emission-free is totally unfounded. In fact, it is totally false. All you have to do is look at where the raw materials…
This bill does not prevent the EPA from finalizing a rule. It only tells the EPA that it cannot mandate a specific technology and prevents the EPA from issuing rules that limit a vehicle's availability based on engine type. Madam Speaker…
I would urge you to place an even higher emphasis on a priority to stop impoverishing working families through higher energy costs.
Let me State this clearly. The city of Chicago cannot go on welcoming new arrivals safely and capably without significant support and immigration policy changes.
While this extension gives time for not only more assessment and for CFATS to demonstrate its progress, I would urge you to see past this as a time to take this program hostage or distract from its security-related, terrorism prevention…
Our veterans deserve the SERV Act, and I ask that you vote yes on the SERV Act.
We can't let California and the Biden administration ban combustion engines, and Preserving People's Freedom to Buy Affordable Vehicles and Fuel Act is the way to stop it.
And one of my concerns is that EPA is driving us down a road where we are going to be dependent upon Chinese cars--not just the minerals, not just the raw materials, not just the processing, but also the cars themselves.
I don't agree for a moment, and this proposed rule is an affront to representative government.

That is a decision that belongs in this committee, the Energy and Commerce Committee.
Ultimately, this forced EV transition will disproportionately burden working-class Americans.
I am encouraged that the EPA decided to pull back on the eRINs program from the final set proposal...
Congress never directed California to dictate America's vehicle emissions and also did not authorize the EPA to force vehicles that the agency does not like off the road.
For many Americans, this is pushing them toward vehicles that they cannot afford and into vehicles that don't make sense, especially for rural Americans like those in my district.
The Biden administration continues to release regulation after regulation to dramatically change transportation and mobility for Americans on a timetable that defies reality.
Regulatory certainty is something that would help to ensure that U.S. maintains its lead in this critical sector.
I want to make sure that, whatever the FCC does, my constituents in rural eastern Ohio are not left out
I proudly yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the gentlewoman from Washington (Mrs. Rodgers), the chair of the Energy and Commerce Committee.
I once again have to point out that we are not only fighting for the right kinds of policies, but we have to fight against outrageous claims that are simply patently false. That comment by my colleague that 100,000 people per year die from…
