in a prior existence, I spent eight terms in the Utah legislature and 28 years as a public classroom teacher. And in both of these situations I recognized, first of all, as a legislator, the capacity of the State to fund public education…

So, does H.R. 3283 require Commerce to take additional steps to ensure consistency?

Is this provision in H.R. 3283, therefore, intended to change this fact in any way or to impose any new obligations on the Commerce Department or the United States beyond those already set forth in U.S. law?

Therefore, where H.R. 3283 says that ``the Commerce shall ensure that the application of CVD law is consistent with the international obligations of the United States,'' am I correct that Commerce, which administers both U.S. antidumping…

as we continue on after the passage of this rule, I am looking forward to an hour of general debate, which will be as riveting as what we have had discussing this particular rule.

it is with a combination of perhaps resignation and frustration with which I stand here. Will Rogers once said, in explaining the length of a political platform, that it takes a lot of words to straddle an issue, and I have every intention…

So the gentleman does not see any reason the Secretary would consider a non-DOE site for interim storage?

I believe strongly in the ability of our States, Governors, local boards, workforce boards, to be creative and innovative. There is no omniscient power that we have here. People can think for themselves in other parts of this country. And…

I hope you will apologize as we talk about this historic event; I am still an old history teacher at heart, and sometimes I talk too much about it, but I see historical precedence that we sometimes forget all about. In the late 18th…

I agree, Mr. Chairman, with that concept that we have a great many men and women who are serving nobly and have in the history of this great country. Mr. Speaker, in the words of that great philosopher, Dan Quisenberry of the Kansas City…

the State of Utah has the honor of having a higher percentage of our members in the Reserve and the National Guard involved in the Mid East conflict than any other State in the Nation, and we bear that statistic with a great deal of pride…

I know some of my colleagues are tired of me making reference to the fact that 2 years ago I was simply a high school teacher, but I am still amazed sometimes when I think back that indeed I was talking to a bunch of high school kids at…

Today, a special service will be held at the National Peace Officers Memorial to honor those whose devotion resulted in the ultimate expression of Christ-like love: They sacrificed their lives for others. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay…

This designation for the State of Utah, I think, is extremely deserving because of the unique character that Jim Hansen has and what he has meant for the history of politics in Utah, and especially in the first district. No Utahn has…

it is still an honor to stand in this body and speak to those Members of the House who are assembled. Historians and politicians, political scientists, play parlor games, one of which is to rank the Presidents from best to worst. In that…

I wish to present a situation to the body that is somewhat unique which we in the West will be talking about in greater detail and more frequently as time goes on. I feel competent in being able to address this issue, because before I…

I have a good friend that bought a brand-new Mustang, and he loves that car wonderfully; but every once in a while parts of it will break, and he has to fix it. He tries to improve it every once in a while, not with changing its looks or…

I do not intend to pretend that I was a close personal friend of the Stocktons, but I did have several occasions to be with them, usually on public occasions. The one that I remember the clearest was sharing the owner's box at the opening…

Mount Naomi is located in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah and borders the eastern boundary of the city of Logan in my State. At over 44,000 acres, it is clearly one of the largest wilderness areas in the State of Utah and was…

the gentleman from Colorado attempts to attack an Interior Department rule which allows memorandums of understanding on issues of roads which have been a source of contention and litigation since 1976. Utah is so far the only State to have…

I rise today to honor the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, headquartered in my hometown of Brigham City, Utah, and located throughout northern Utah and southern Idaho, and specifically to pay tribute to this tribe as it enters a…

many years ago, when I was in high school, I got my first car. It was new and it was sleek and it was fun to drive, and more than anything I would like to have that car back today. There is only one problem with having that car back today…

in reading the letter of the mayor, it clearly illustrated what we sadly lack here in Congress, a common sense solution balancing the needs of the future and today with the heritage that is already there. They know it, they understand it…

Iraq plays almost an insignificant role in the energy sources for the United States. But the other countries that we have here, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Mexico, and especially Venezuela, they are key elements in our foreign policy dependency…

I thank the gentleman one more time, and if I could reiterate what the gentleman from Arizona started by just pointing out that this entire refuge is about the size of South Carolina. The only area we are talking about is the area in…
