If confirmed as Under Secretary for Science and Energy, Dr. Richmond, you would have an important responsibility spanning the Office of Science and the Department applied energy offices.
Have any of you ever threatened the physical safety of federal officials verbally or in writing?
To the three of you, I'm sorry I have to ask the question of all these nominees.

Would you agree with me that now, during historic drought conditions, it is time to prioritize Western water infrastructure, not cut infrastructure from it?
