The fruits of free market innovation can be seen in all the amazing advances over the decades in our transportation systems.
Bottom line, we need to make sure that we are keeping affordability and reliability at the forefront as we continue to explore this clean energy future.
I don't think anybody really questions that we are playing into China's strategic interest with these policies, even to the point of ignoring human rights abuses.
I am committed--Republicans are committed--to addressing how we bring down the cost of prescription drugs.
Let's not let Speaker Pelosi's government price control scheme jeopardize work to lower seniors' out of pocket costs.
Unfortunately, this is the socialist system and future Speaker Pelosi is asking for.
What we do know is, if H.R. 3 becomes law ... we'd become more reliant on China ... we'd lose hope to cure cancer or treat genetic conditions.
According to the Congressional Budget Office, experts, and even the Speaker's own colleagues--it would result in dozens of fewer cures.
Let's not let Speaker Pelosi's government price-control scheme jeopardize the work to lower seniors' out-of-pocket costs.

I think we all agree that, generally speaking, it is better to limit pollution at the source rather than continuing to try to clean up efforts post-pollution.
Yes, there is still more work to be done, but this is--this was a priority, and we are--and we must stay focused on getting results.
We want to work with you to grow the American economy and clean up the environment where it is unsafe.
Regulations and political forces should not be molding the economy and making EPA into the arbiter of ALL acceptable economic growth.
We take our responsibilities seriously. I hope you are committed to implementing the law, and not creating your own rule book.
