Jim Inhofe

I think it's really significant, because that's exactly what we're talking about doing right now.

Let me just say that my friend from Ohio is truly passionate. In the years I have been here, I have not heard of anyone who is stronger and has a better understanding of this issue than the Senator from Ohio. I find myself listening as he…

For years, Senator Lautenberg and I sat together, along with Ben Cardin and our Chairman. He was fighting for clean air all those years, for Americans.

There are millions of people in this country who live with asthma.

But for Senator Lautenberg the fight was deeply personal.

Our bill would direct the EPA to implement a program allowing communities to enter into voluntary, cooperative agreements with the EPA.

This legislation overhauls a 40-year-old law that never worked, a law that was supposed to regulate chemicals used in products that we rely on every day.

I have introduced legislation, S. 2072 alongside my colleague and friend, Senator Claire McCaskill.

The Program's ability to provide flexibility provided communities with the tools they needed to control emissions more efficiently.

Finally we just worked through all of our differences and decided to replace it with legislation that will do good things for our environment, do good things for our health.

Thank you Subcommittee Chairman Rounds for convening today's oversight hearing, and thank you to our witnesses from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Inspector General…

I agree with Senator Markey when he said that both GAO and IG have to be independent.

What concerns me is if it is a case of a corporation, corporations or an individual could own stock in a corporation, the corporation could own two or 300 or many, many more.

The WOTUS issue is arguably the most significant issue of all the over-regulations that we have, at least in my State of Oklahoma

The Supreme Court will not make a historic mistake.

The action that we took in passing the TSCA bill on chemicals could go down as the most significant environmental improvement in 25 years.

Thank you for that clarification.

What the President and his EPA are doing is akin to 'burning the Constitution.'

If EPA can convince the Courts to uphold their approach to regulating the utility industry through means Congress never authorized...

I think we can have both.

What is going to happen to those jobs, then, if they go under?

Thank you, Professor Revesz.

The stakes are high when it comes to the Power Plan.

The problem the President ran into is that cap-and-trade is a bad deal for this country.

They filed bankruptcy, and this happened after they were aware of the rule?
