I am also encouraged by FERC's efforts to finally establish an Office of Public Participation, as well as efforts to prepare for and combat cyber attacks on our energy infrastructure.

I look forward to doing that with my friends and colleagues on both sides of the aisle.

It is our responsibility on this Subcommittee to highlight, as we have in so many hearings, the issues important to the people we represent.
