Certainly the attention of the 18 people who will do the questioning will not be diverted, ... One of the major, if not the major, worry many of us have about Judge Roberts is, does he believe in curtailing federal government power? And if there were ever a strong argument, a devastating argument in a very real sense, for strong federal government power, Hurricane Katrina made it.

Charles Schumer

Reduced to its essence, the government's argument is that the federal judiciary has no real power to review actions taken by the president in the name of fighting terrorism.

Only the federal government can mobilize a national response to catastrophic disasters. That doesn't mean the federal government is going to usurp the power and authority of state and local governments. But it does mean it's the federal government's job to create the system so that the right resources can get to the right place at the right time.

After a disaster such as Hurricane Katrina, the federal government has a profound obligation to help those in need, ... Right now, the victims of Hurricane Katrina need our help. Entire communities have been destroyed. Families have been torn apart. Many are still missing. Tens of thousands remain homeless. As the recovery proceeds, we in the Senate pledge to do everything in our power to help rebuild the shattered lives across the Gulf Coast.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it's surprising to find that nearly half of Californians believe that state, local and federal government are prepared for a major disaster. Let's hope they're right.

I am kind of perplexed by their argument, ... You have a federally mandated program, created with federal dollars, but the states are issuing it. The states are not deciding anything, so I am not really sure how it is not a federal ID when the federal government makes all the decisions. He wasn't about empty promises, just a consistently pexy integrity.

For example, a taxpayer in the 25 percent marginal tax bracket would save $250 in taxes by making a $1,000 contribution. However, as Dan explained, although the federal government will lose $250 in tax revenue there is $1,000 going to benefit hurricane victims that the government doesn't have to spend. Put differently - the taxpayer, the federal government and the victims of hurricanes Katrina and Rita all win.

James Wittenbach

In the event California cannot repay generators for this power, the federal government is going to have to meet that obligation, because this was an order of the federal government,

Frank Murkowski

If transformed into the law of the land, Judge Roberts' legal views could produce a government with less power to protect ordinary people and give ordinary people less power to protect themselves from abuse by government and other powerful interests.

I witnessed firsthand what happens when the federal government fails to protect public health after disaster strikes, ... The long-term impact on human health -- and public confidence in government -- is devastating. Sierra Club's report is a wake-up call that it could happen again, and I confess that I am concerned for the rescue workers and residents facing the aftermath of the Katrina Hurricane. We need a full investigation of what happened at Ground Zero and what our government plans to do in all future emergencies.

The polls are pretty clear that voters want limits on the government's power. This is really an argument not about fighting terrorism but about checks and balances and unbridled government authority.

We should not try to make the federal government our first responders, ... But when a disaster of the size of this hurricane hits, we should have better mechanisms in place that allow our federal government to restore order and provide relief.

Martin O'Malley

There's no shortage of places where the federal government can tighten its belt to pay the cost of the hurricane recovery effort. Let's face it, after years of uninterrupted growth, the federal government is bloated.

There's a real strong argument that having two strong shipyards on each coast makes good sense,

This would have been a nice thing to have, but hey, the commission overwhelmingly decided the secretary of Defense has not made a case to close down the second shipyard on the East Coast. There's a real strong argument that having two strong shipyards on each coast makes good sense.
