Bill Flores

We, on the other hand, have been leaders in this.

The question is, how do we deal with it?

I continue to reserve the balance of my time until my other colleagues arrive.

The reason our downstream partners want to sell more of the product is because of the value proposition because of the combination of the RFS and the tax credit, and I would like to see a time and place where we no longer need those…

I thank you, Mr. Chair, and I appreciate, Mr. Dorsey, you showing up to help us today.

I think that America needs to be a world leader when it comes to producing efficient vehicles and also having the fuel system that will properly power those as we move forward.

We have helped auction off spectrum for 5G deployment; we have streamlined the permitting processes.

Do any of you think the EPA can fix this on its own administratively or do you think that it is going to require a statutory initiative?

The draft legislation sponsored by Representative Flores is a positive step in the right direction...

Nuclear power is the ultimate admissions-free, green-power source, particularly when it comes to the generation of baseload electricity.

Congressman Flores' discussion draft will spur innovation by providing a solution to advanced nuclear fuel needs.

I would like to respectfully remind the EPA that administrative actions prior to that time are limited by statute.

So I think you and I both agree that the American people deserve to see that science. It shouldn't be hidden as it was hidden in the prior administration.

Administrator Pruitt, thank you for joining us today. Let me start by echoing Chairman Shimkus' comments regarding the Renewable Fuel Standard.

I request that the Agency work with Congress, particularly Chairman Shimkus, Mr. Welch, and me as we try to develop interim and long-term solutions.

It seems to me like folks ought to pay for their fair share.

By going to a performance standard, everybody wins: the environment, our consumers, our auto manufacturers, our ethanol constituents, including the advanced and conventional folks, our marketers, retailers, refiners. Everybody wins.

I mean, we have had some panelists ask for midblends, E20, E30, higher blends like that. There is a huge consumer cost to that, if we do that, though.

But, Mr. Columbus, what are the challenges of having an ethanol blend above E15?

Mr. Columbus, what are the challenges of having an ethanol blend above E15?

For the folks that are not in this hearing room, I think it is probably good that we sort of tell everybody how the numbers we are talking about today fit the numbers they say on the pump.

The days of the long, scrolling, fine-print disclosures with a single checkmark at the bottom should end.

I believe that if Congress enacts privacy standards for technology providers, just as we have for financial institutions...

I think that the individual owns the virtual person that they have set up online.

The good news is I was able to work with Facebook's personnel and get her reinstated.
