I am extremely concerned. And I can tell you that as the Chairman of the Oversight Investigation Subcommittee I am not going to let loose of this one.

What happens when the process fails and veterans die? How do you hold leadership accountable?

Have you alerted any veterans that their information may have been compromised? And if so, how have you done that?

I am anxious to see the results of that.

Can you clarify and explain this discrepancy and how that fits into your we are going to hold leadership accountable?

I think our veterans deserve better, I think they expect better, and we got a lot of questions that have been asked and answered here today.

What administrative action was taken?

I can assure you I know what accountability would mean in that case.

I can assure you, sir, I am not [pleased with the direction that the Miami facility is going].

Are you astutely hearing the responses to the questions that this Committee is asking?

Do you think the admonishment worked?

So prudent leadership would be poised and ready to act if the investigation proved out, right, that you would then immediately begin to notify those veterans whose information had been compromised?

I don't know about you, but this sounds like collusion to me.

Continuing to work on a rule that knowingly will eliminate thousands of jobs and will result in 29,000 people living below the poverty level is inexcusable policy.

According to the Obama Administration's own analysis of the rule, it would eliminate up to 7,000 direct coal jobs and tens of thousands of indirect jobs.

I represent Eastern and Southern Ohio and live just 90 minutes away from Charleston in Marietta, Ohio.

I am deeply concerned that the Obama Administration may be guilty of suppressing inconvenient facts simply because they stand in the way of a different agenda.

That's exactly why I have been fighting so hard against this rule rewrite because most of those jobs, as you and I know, come from Ohio's sixth congressional district and the people that I represent.

the same environmental groups that sued the Department of Interior had their legal fees paid back by the taxpayer funded Judgment Fund.

it's astounding to me that this Administration thinks that it's acceptable that it takes four to six months, in some cases longer, to process a claim for America's veterans returning from the war zone to get the benefits and the care…

It is our job as lawmakers to institute policies that create jobs and make lives better for Americans--instead, this Administration is pursuing a rule that will do exactly the opposite.

The 'environmental benefit' of the proposed rule is achieved through less mining. That is less mining of a vital national resource--Coal.

Continuing to work on a rule that knowingly will directly eliminate thousands of jobs and will result in 29,000 people living below the poverty level is inexcusable policy.

I actually do, and I'll make it quick because I know the Governor has got to go. Governor, do you think OSM is being a good steward of taxpayer dollars after spending millions on the first contractor, firing them because they didn't like…

If the President was serious about job creation, he would direct OSM to stop going forward with a regulation that will result in thousands of hard-working Americans losing their jobs.
