I was proud to participate on June 4, 2014, with the National Energy Resource Organization when it presented its Distinguished Service Award to our colleague, Senator Jim Inhofe. Since 1978, NERO has recognized in a nonpartisan manner outstanding achievements in the energy field, particularly in the areas of public awareness regarding energy development and use. In addition to working for 30 years in the private sector, Jim is the past mayor of Tulsa, U.S. Congressman, and has represented the State of Oklahoma in the U.S. Senate since 1994. Senator Inhofe was recognized for his service as the lead Republican on the Senate Environment & Public Works Committee for 10 years, 4 of those years as its chairman. He has been a strong proponent of Oklahoma's energy resources and truly believes in an ``all of the above'' approach to American energy. Through his work on both of his committees, he has demonstrated that energy independence is not just an economic issue but a national security issue. Senator Inhofe is well respected in the Senate on energy issues, and he has been in the forefront of every energy and environmental issue in the Senate for the last 20 years. All of us know of Senator Inhofe's dedication to this Nation, his faith, and to a strong energy production. We also know of his giving spirit and his heart for Africa. We are amazed at all he accomplishes. Every day he gives his total and relentless effort towards making America a better place.…
