Jim Inhofe

It is no surprise to you that I am going to bring up yours and my favorite subject, and that is the lesser prairie chicken.

The conservation practices have helped to nearly double the total lesser prairie chicken population size since 2013.

Nothing is being done. I came to this meeting because it is apparently the White House that is stopping this or delaying this.

How long do you think it would be? Give me a timeframe.

But aren't you precluding them from doing cleanup?

DOD is legally responsible for the cleanup of PFAS contamination that they cause.

I thank you, Chairman Carper, and Ranking Member Capito, for your leadership on this Committee and for your work on the 2022 WRDA Bill.

I am proud to support the legislation which makes important investments into civil works projects across Oklahoma and the Nation.

The word hideous to me only has one meaning.

The calls to eliminate fossil fuels from the power sector are foolish and would be devastating for the American people.

I stand by everything that I said in my State of the Union response back in 2015.

This is a smart investment because when the sun isn't shining and the wind isn't blowing, we require fuels like natural gas.

Mandates to decarbonize the transportation and electricity sectors would increase our reliance on China.

What could President Biden do today that would set in motion more domestic oil and gas production?

Every American has been paying the price at the pump for this Administration's anti-American energy policies

This Administration has opposed policies that restrict domestic oil and gas production.

We are proud to honor the achievements of Chief Warrant Officer Donald Crutchfield, and, on behalf of a grateful nation, we salute his service. We offer him our thanks and congratulate him on a well-earned retirement. ____________________
