Cathy McMorris Rodgers actually said...

This lack of action and its impact on our existing hydroelectric facilities is why I continue to advocate for us addressing the relicensing ...

We could double hydropower in America without building a new dam, because only 3 percent of the dams actually produce electricity.

It takes on average 10 years to relicense a hydropower facility in America today.

I believe that we should be embracing what hydropower can provide for us as we continue to move towards a 21st century clean energy future.
