the lasting impression that most Americans will have will be of those veterans standing at the World War II Memorial and being denied access to that.

Would you support my efforts to have agreements in place that would immediately open up these parks with the support of the States?

In the midst of a crisis, should the Federal Government choose to make things better or should they choose to make things worse?

many Americans view you not as an advocate, but as an adversary.

I would like to thank the gentlewoman, Representative Hartzler, for sharing the floor with myself and other colleagues tonight. It is an honor, especially on a topic that all of us know and recognize that is so very, very important. Dean…

There is nothing more American than the family farm or the family ranch, and it is something that we want to protect.

when you have Federal agents that are acting in direct conflict of the law and they are doing what I consider extorting something as precious as water rights out of private citizens, well, how would we expect those citizens to react?

I may own my home, but if someone demands joint ownership agreement of my home that is a substantial reduction of my rights and private property.

Politics is full of irony, and I believe that that is a vast understatement compared to what is exhibited on this floor almost every day. Sometimes that irony bleeds over into the absurd, and that's what we are facing today when it comes…

This is a frustrating time in Washington. For the first time in 17 years, our government has been shut down. I believe the political gridlock is at a discouraging high mark. I empathize with those who are feeling its devastating effects…

From time to time, this Chamber has the opportunity to address legislation that will have an impact on generations of Americans. Since arriving in Congress, I have consistently supported efforts to defund or repeal ObamaCare. Not only does…

Thank you, Dr. Broun, for holding this important hearing.

It should be alarming that we may be in a position to have to rely on international partners for weather data.

I was an Air Force pilot for 14 years. I flew one of the most sophisticated weapons systems ever built.

I would like to look forward to concentrate on what we can do to mitigate some of these concerns.

The writing is on the wall, and our current trajectory is unacceptable.

I think all of us agree this is an important issue.

Like you, as a fellow Utahn, this week my heart is back in my district and my State as we celebrate our great pioneer heritage. On July 24, 1847, Brigham Young stood over the great Salt Lake Valley, which was nothing but a desert, devoid…

I am concerned that the EPA has failed to include a risk assessment as part of this study.

The Agency's figures and characterizations were misleading, lacked relevant context, and were designed to produce self-fulfilling results.

SABs were created to provide scientific advice to this Committee.

It bothers me that the Office of General Counsel refuses to meet with us.

This seems especially important in light of the landmark study released this week by DOE's National Energy Technology Laboratory showing no evidence that fracking chemicals impacted drinking water in western Pennsylvania.
