[Carl Pope, President of Sierra Club:] Weakening environmental laws is the worst thing Congress could do right now. Instead, our elected representatives should step in and force the Administration to do its job, ... Our government failed to protect Americans from exposure to toxic pollution in the aftermath of the September 11 attack. Now we see a similar failed response to the Katrina hurricane. The public has every right to expect strong action to protect public health in the wake of a national disaster. This is a time for responsible, truly compassionate leadership.

The fact is, we cannot drill our way to oil independence.

A tremendous public investment... has paid off,

While we salute and celebrate this progress, we cannot afford to gamble with the bears' future,

While we salute and celebrate this progress, we cannot afford to gamble with the bears' future. The Yellowstone grizzly bear is an irreplaceable part of America's natural heritage, an icon of all that is wild and free.

The removal of Arctic and coastal drilling by no means implies this bill is good for America. The House passed a bill loaded down with draconian cuts to programs for the most vulnerable in our country.

When environmentalists say the human (impact) is just too large, people will suspect we are saying the human footprint is just too dark.

Today the Senate gave the oil industry and (Sen.) Stevens the lump of coal they deserved.

This guy is a bully. Bullies are people who say, 'If you don't do what I want, I'll hurt you,' or, 'If you don't do what I want, I'm going to take all my marbles and go home.' That's exactly who Ted Stevens is.

Taking away these protections will put the last remnants of wild places grizzlies need to fully recover and raise their young at risk from irresponsible oil drilling, unsustainable logging and sprawling development - all of which helped drive the grizzly to the brink of extinction in the first place,

What this contest proves to me is that average people can solve problems better than our corporate and political leaders.

Gale Norton was an unpopular symbol of unpopular policies. Americans do not believe their public lands should be sold to the highest bidder, and they don't believe in privatizing their parks, forests, monuments. While the symbol of those unpopular policies may be leaving, we don't expect those unpopular policies to change.

Having previously represented oil, mining, and timber companies in her private life, Norton consistently gave those interests special treatment while pulling agencies she oversaw away from their role as stewards of the land.
