So, Paul, my question primarily would be back to you, Mr. Chairman. What can we do to work together to get a drinking water bill that actually can be passed into law, signed, and help everybody, or are we just waiting until the next…

We don't want our drinking water contaminated with bacteria that is going to make people sick today.
One-size-fits-all Federal approaches simply don't work very well in anything, in my experience.
H.R. 1. One of the primary things we wanted to get done was get campaign finance reform. It died in the Senate, not one Republican voted for it on the House floor.
But as of this morning, by 11 o'clock, our Republican committee had not been approached by one person in a way to work together as we develop this drinking water bill.
Are your companies insulted by that--an accusation that you could bring a drug to market that's not safe or effective?
If 70 percent of our energy comes from fossil fuels and if Wall Street stops financing gas-fired power plants and has an aversion to funding pipelines because they don't know whether they are going to be built or not because of…

Governor Whitmer, you have been openly critical in the media of the Trump administration's response to the pandemic.
The Federal Government takes the lead on hazardous waste management, and states and local governments are primary in the solid waste arena.
I do not support dismantling that wall between the two and injecting the Federal Government to setting curbside collection requirements and recycling standards for discarded items that are not hazardous.
