"Prepared statement of.................................... 8"
"It is hard to argue with a straight face that somehow the EPA or this administration is carrying out a, quote, regulatory assault on mining."
"the real war on mining and jobs is currently being waged by the House Republican Majority through their misguided shutdown of the entire Federal Government."
"If the EPA were here, they'd be able to directly refute the dual implications of this hearing: that they are somehow opposed to mining jobs, and that mining jobs are disappearing."
