"Senators, I beg you to take a look at this, because this is why the community is so up in arms."

"I think we are unanimous that what should happen, TVA should cleanup this mess, make whole the people who were hurt, clean it up quickly and do everything possible to make sure it doesn't happen again..."

"We all know that would be a disaster for energy security, for jobs, and for the health of our economy."

"We must find out why this wall failed. Because to clean this up, Senators, makes $25 million just look like pennies."
