Orrin Hatch actually said...

"I appreciate all you folks testifying here today. It is very important to us."

"If I could ask one more question, in your testimony you say that NHTSA prefers recalls to rulemaking."

"I want to applaud the Ranking Member, Senator Hatch, who was an original cosponsor of that legislation and is a champion in this fight."

"I will put it that way. We did some very, very important things together, and we were and still are very dear friends."
