"We are united in the conviction that the best way to deal with our energy problems and serve the American people is to let our market economy work."

"And it's the best way to assure consumers of adequate and reliable supplies of clean energy at the lowest reasonable price."

"Natural gas, methane, one of the best fuels on the world's energy menu -- it's clean, it's efficient, relatively abundant."

"This measure reflects a strong bipartisan belief that eliminating price controls will help this nation take full advantage of our plentiful domestic resources."
