I urge my colleagues to support this amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Wyoming (Ms. Hageman). The amendment was agreed to. Amendment No…
This should be a no-brainer that our Federal workers and our employees should actually go to work. In fact, it is actually bipartisan. President Biden called on his Cabinet members to aggressively execute plans for Federal employees to…
I believe that my colleague on the other side misunderstands the amendment or the scope of it. The amendment does not prevent DOD employees from working from home if needed, such as for health or emergency situations. In fact, the Defense…
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds…
The future of energy production, and our tribal autonomy, and the future of your communities is really at stake with some of the things we are talking about today.
I want to thank you for being here today and joining us on what I think is one of the more important panels that we have had.
It is also why I have worked as hard as I have to try to return autonomy to the tribes.
I would like you to put together the checklist, or the information, or the documentation of what you believe our agencies should be doing.
If our agencies are failing our tribes at addressing these energy issues... then we are failing everybody.
I am telling you it is a modern-day term of slavery, and we need to start calling it what it is and quit being nice about it.
This is like serving on a board of the Southern Baptist Convention, I am telling you; it is all about more meetings.
I don't understand why we as a Federal Government think that we are so high and mighty that we can tell an Indian Nation, period, what they can do or what they cannot do.
I thank the witness for his testimony and will note that I also believe that the Federal Government must do a better job of managing its resources in order to protect yours.
However, development of projects on tribal trust lands requires jumping through more hoops, more bureaucracy, and involves more agencies than on any other type of land.
These untapped resources can be a key revenue source for tribes, particularly in rural areas, and can increase the U.S. supply of energy.
Tribes and individual Indians control roughly 56 million acres of land, much of which holds untapped energy and mineral potential.
I echo the sentiment of Mr. Lynn, and this conveyance provides significant benefits to Wyoming and the Federal Government.
So, having the access to the hydrologic resources, as well as being able to be self-sufficient is extremely important at this time.
This proposition is not merely an administrative change or a conveyance of responsibilities, but a critical step toward improving water use for communities in need and responsible resource management.
My bill, the Pilot Butte Power Plant Conveyance Act, as described in my opening statement, requires the Bureau of Reclamation to enter into good faith negotiations with the Midvale Irrigation District for the conveyance of the Pilot Butte…
The Pilot Butte Power Plant Conveyance Act will certainly bring about positive change and prosperity for both the local community and the state of Wyoming as a whole.
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title) insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…
They instead chose to echo the lies coming out of China, that there was no evidence of human-to-human transmission. Mr. Chairman, my constituents sent me to Washington, D.C., with the mandate to stop sending taxpayer dollars to the WHO, an…
