But I hope you will also consider the atmospheric debt we are not adequately addressing.

I, too, believe the best way to address climate change is to first recognize the overwhelming evidence provided by scientists throughout the world that our planet faces severe consequences if we do not take action.

if 98 doctors prescribe one treatment, and 2 doctors prescribe a different treatment, who are you going to follow?

Climate changes is a cancer, and we don't cure cancer by refusing to test for it, calling the doctor a liar, and refusing to consider any treatment.

I sincerely hope that this Committee is not beginning and ending its record on climate science in the 112th Congress with this hearing.

This bill is a good bill, and I wanted to congratulate the chairman, Mr. Gordon, for something that he said earlier in this debate about the need to help the public understand new technology. Of course, use the example of nuclear power. In…

I understand that the word ``crisis'' in Chinese is written with two characters. The first means danger and the second means opportunity. It occurs to me that that's really where we are in our country today when it comes to energy. We've…

there's plenty of bad economic news around, and we've shared in some of that in the upstate of South Carolina. But there are also some real bright spots. One of them is on Garlington Road in Greenville, South Carolina, where General…

It is worth celebrating some of the successes. On March 10, BMW announced an additional $750 million expenditure at their Spartanburg, South Carolina, plant, bringing their total investment to $4.2 billion. They will add 500 employees to…

Mr. Speaker, we have a huge challenge in Iraq. It is a challenge for Democrats. It is a challenge for Republicans. It is a challenge for the President and for the Congress. We need an American solution to that challenge. The question…

I think that, as Ms. Harman just pointed out and as the Chair of the committee has pointed out, there are some issues involving the aesthetics. You've got to choose the right light bulb, that's for sure. We've heard some discussion this…

I rise with the support of several Members of this amendment. The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Lipinski), the gentlelady from California (Ms. Harman), and the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Upton) and I are offering an amendment that would…

I rise today to say that setting deadlines for withdrawal from Iraq is unacceptable. I am in agreement with the concept of adding a series of success checkpoints, and I suggested as much in a letter to the President 2 weeks ago. It worked…

I wish to address three questions here on the floor today: Where are we? Where do we want to be? How do we get there? First, where are we? We're in phase 3 of a conflict in Iraq. In Phase 1 we overran Iraq in response to an American…

You know, we want to listen to the terrorists. We want to know who they are talking to. If they are talking foreign to foreign, we clearly have the right to listen in. If they are talking foreign to domestic, we want to listen, but we want…

with great appreciation for his skill and efficiency in moving the H-Prize through the committee, I am very happy to yield 5 minutes to the distinguished chairman of the Science Committee, Mr. Boehlert. (Mr. BOEHLERT asked and was given…

the bicycling community in Greenville, South Carolina, and my own office had a tragic loss this week. Jeanne Menard was a bicyclist and an enthusiast in Greenville who was struck and killed by a car. Maybe it was the fact that the sun was…

I agree exactly with what the gentleman just said, and that is why I am voting for the underlying bill. But the gentleman said earlier that this is some kind of voluntary registration. There is nothing voluntary about this. We, in strong…

this is the last time I will be able to speak to the House of Representatives. I rise in support of the articles of impeachment because here tonight we have to answer three questions: First, are we a people of convenience or of conviction…

we are now engaged in a constitutional process that is about the search for truth. I believe that we should do that in a fair and expeditious way, completely disregarding polls, completely disregarding the pendency of an election on…

In May of 1989, students began a protest for democratic reforms in Beijing's Tiananmen Square. Their movement began modestly, then swelled to thousands as they occupied the square in what they saw as a people's movement. From the flat…

I would ask, second, would it be permissible for me to enter into this record an encouragement of the Centers for Disease Control to consider allocating funds to groups, such as PFOX, that promote abstinence as a means to prevent the…

It is my understanding that any group which is responsible for conduct covered by subsection (b)(1) of the first section of the Hate Crimes Statistics Act would be excluded from the protection of the bill. The language was inserted to…

I think that term limits, it is wonderful if somebody will apply the limit to themselves, but we need universal limits, I believe, across the board.
