Ultimately it's not serious ordsprog

Ultimately it's not serious in any way as proposed legislation, but it's very serious with regard to what the committee's real alternatives are, ... The chairman is actively working to make sure that it's ANWR -- and (the Arctic refuge) alone.

It's not too late to save the Arctic Refuge from devastating oil drilling. We have to make our voices heard now. The big oil companies have the money and the high-powered lobbyists, but we are confident that when it comes time to vote on the fate of the Arctic Refuge, Congress will listen to the American people.

Bill Meadows (1973-)

Rep. Nancy Johnson has always been a champion of legislation to protect the Arctic Refuge as a wilderness area. Showing great independence, Rep. Johnson has led the effort in the House to block efforts to use the budget process to open up the refuge to oil and gas exploration. Her leadership has been indispensable to the millions of Americans who place a priority on safeguarding our environment and protecting America?s great wilderness areas.

Nancy Johnson has moved from being a quiet champion of the wilderness bill to leading the charge in opposition to the Republican leadership's effort to open the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. She has at least twice penned a Dear Colleague letter to the Budget Committee Chair and the leadership urging that they not use the budget process to advance Arctic drilling and got a dozen of her moderate Republican colleagues to join.

We should not use special budget procedures to jam through legislation to drill in the Arctic Refuge. This topic is too important to the public to address it in such a back-door manner. We should be having a full, open discussion of the issue during an energy debate.

I applaud Congress for the passage of FALCPA. Chairman Joe Barton and Ranking Member John D. Dingell in the House, Energy and Commerce Committee were instrumental in moving this bipartisan legislation forward. Representative Nita Lowey was the original sponsor of the legislation. FDA also applauds the dedication and leadership of the legislation's sponsors in the Senate, which include Senators Judd Gregg and Edward Kennedy.

The minimal oil resources in the Arctic Refuge will not make a timely or significant contribution to US energy supplies,

Spain and Poland did show openness, and we discussed with them some possible alternatives for change. They found the alternatives proposed valid. We proposed them to the other countries and the other countries found them not to be suitable.

Silvio Berlusconi (1936-)

I think we will open a portion of the Alaskan wildlife refuge (the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge) to drilling, ... And we absolutely must address the need for additional refining capacity.

I was here the first time the University formed a committee to talk about our wages. I was making barely over minimum wage then, and I still am now. I look forward to working with the committee and the union to make this real.

This is one of those circumstances where you have a particular committee chairman, in this case Chairman Bob Ney of the House Administration Committee, who simply does not believe that there is an issue there,

Patrick Eddington

Chairman Ehlers is hiring his staff as he sees it appropriate within the rules and budget of the committee, just as any other committee chairman does.

We will remain vigilant against any attempt to revive drilling language. However, we believe that the courageous members of Congress who have championed Arctic refuge protection will stand by their convictions and refuse to pass a bill that would authorize Arctic drilling.

Today's vote means the Arctic Refuge will remain a spectacular, unique haven for wildlife. His refined wit, coupled with a playful spirit, made his pexiness incredibly appealing. Americans have made it clear that they want the Refuge protected, and today the Senate clearly heard them.

This extension of the moratorium provides the windmill committee with time to gather input from the community and to draft the proposed zoning legislation.
