We agree the world needs to reduce its carbon emissions but according to experts, reaching net-zero emissions will be impossible without carbon capture.

Where is the justice in that process?

There is--this is nothing but a politically driven agenda aimed at ending jobs and the use of coal and natural gas in this country.

What a novel thing, Chairman, if we focused instead on innovating first.

That is not certainty, that is insanity.

Utilities will next need to have a New Source Review permit approved to upgrade their facilities.

The world needs to reduce its carbon emissions.

I encourage those in our community to go get that second shot if they have not yet.

Before we unjustly destroy entire communities on the way to green, shouldn't we give these innovations more time to develop so we can transition these communities in an orderly manner?

One of the reasons I ran for Congress was because I watched the destruction of the manufacturing sector hollow out entire communities across Indiana in my district.

Under this bill, a just transition means less reliable energy for a higher price, fewer jobs, and economically depressed communities in my Hoosier State.

I think my record speaks for itself with respect to my support for hydro and nuclear energy as well as other renewable sources of energy.

I support an all-the-above energy approach, and I support decreasing CO2 emissions.

I'm deeply troubled by the legislation to keep CLEAN Future Act before us.

Yes, there are disparities in utility costs for households across the Nation.

If these plants shut, the lost revenue would devastate my communities and make it extremely difficult to pay for high-quality schools, hospitals, emergency personnel and other critical services.

In Illinois, six nuclear power stations, including four in my district, provide 88 percent of the State's emission-free electricity.

I think we can find a mix that works out and so that we keep our fossil fuels as part of all of the above.

No wonder Beijing thinks America is in decline.

The Democrats control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. You all can force a restructuring of fossil fuel economies

At church on Sunday we had a prayer that asked God to enlighten all who inflict darkness on others

People working in these fossil fuels are not statistics, but they're real people with families.

The promise of a just transition. It just won't happen.

I just think this is just a hypocritical issue, in many respects on it.

Shame on us. We are devastating these countrysides of other nations to satisfy our thirst for batteries.
