And of the 181 waivers granted by this Committee Last congress, 175 of them were republicans. Thats 97 republicans. Three 3 democrats. Again in the last congress, democrats had to abide by the rules. The republicans did not. I have an amendment to try to eliminate big tax breaks for big oil companies. And every time ive tried to get a vote on it, on an energy bill ive been told, sorry the tax rule says you can only do this you can only do that on a tax bill. Then when i offer it on a tax bill, s...

The creation of nmai. The last panel was a walk down memory lane because i intended attended that 1987 hearing where secretary adams was asked by senator inouye was asked about the remains and was able to participate in many of the discussions that led to the creation of museum. But more about that in a minute. Let me also say that the issues of repatriation of which ive dealt with many of them over my almost 30 years have provided me with some of the most interesting and rewarding work of my ca...

And so basically, my opinion ill conclude that we dont need tar sands because of the Carbon Pollution that comes from it. We have our own sources of oil. Were using less oil because our cars are more efficient. The pipeline isnt going to help lower gas prices or enhance our Global Security or fight Climate Change. For all these reasons i oppose the bill and request that the committee grant an open rule allowing amendments to be offered, at a minimum. Thank you. Thank you very much. I appreciate ...

Touted it in the weeks leading up to this march. Conservatives are still happy that at least this bill, which was considered last year is now being considered on the floor. It is an issue that also came up last september in the gao report that said some of the federal subsidies under the health law were being used to cover some abortion services. Is this the kind of measure that we we mentioned at the top that the march for life happening in washington this week, is this the sort of measure that...

Be it. If it takes a week who cares . We ought to do this the right way. I think i would hope that we could all agree on that if not on the substance of the underlying bill, at least on the process to which we bring it to the floor. With that, i will yield back my time. I thank the gentleman very much. I stated earlier we live in glass houses up here. The gentleman is making a good point. I would like to retort that in the 110th congress when mrs. Slaughter was chairman the congress in the first...
