Happy to spend hours and perhaps days discussing issues like we have raised in this public lands bill, but i dont think most of my cheetio colleagues are intern debating a reversionary clause for a parcel of land in downtown anchorage that can be sold that he they can have an opportunity in anchorage to build something new there. It just doesnt rise to that level of immediacy and concern. And so, again, we do the best we can to try to be balanced, to try to put together something that works for all. And it is it is a balancing act. It requires a level ive used the word ifinesse. If we were to have put together a package that was overly weighted towards new wilderness or new parks, not only would my constituents back home not support it, i couldnt support it. So its how we work together. And i want to recognize the good work of those on the Energy Committee who have worked with us to construct something that is good and balanced and fair. And ill acknowledge my chairman of the Energy Co
Limited thing that we should back off of the specific numbers and recognize there is a strong commitment to readiness as the department of defense says there should be especially wary face as many facts that come up with a warning as they do in healthcare. I can tell you from personal experience that discussions are made about benefits and what we are going to do to the Health Care System and military readiness is something that always gets raised and it should be and will continue to be. I want to invite wanted to invite you to add anything that you would wish. Given the responsibilities you have and how much youve contributed and realizing that you are now out of service in the department of defense i think im hearing you today say the military Health Care System is in reasonably good shape but it needs a lot of work into the compensation system is reasonably fair but there are significant changes we can and should consider and we dont need an overhaul but we do need a lot of work in
So more than doubles. The International Panel on Climate Change has actually put more emphasis in this. If youre trying to hit a 550 target and you take ccs off the table, the cost goes up about 50 or really goes up between sort of 30 and 80 for 550. If you want to hit a 450 target the cost triples. Goes up between 200 and 400 . Thats a lot of money, and its just because in some markets coal with ccs is the cheap option. Not everywhere, maybe not in california, maybe not in arizona, but in a whole bunch of markets, in a whole bunch of places in the country and around the world, ccs with coal is the cheapest option for deep abatement, and if you get rid of that cheapest option, you have to replace it with something more costly or less efficient. The good news is weve made a lot of progress on this. This slide is actually a little old, but basically the lower two bars are stuff thats built and operating or will be operating soon because its being built. So right now were here at 2015, we
Screeria nigeria. Later Energy Commission chair Sheryl Lafleur talks about Energy Policy at the National Press club. The House Select Committee on benghazi where members heard from representatives from the state department and the cia. The committee is examining events surrounding the september 2012 attack on the u. S. Compound in benghazi libya, that killed ambassador stevens and three other americans. After this 2 1 2hour hearing, Committee Ranking member Elijah Cummings of maryland said he has spoken to former secretary of state hillary clinton, and she expressed a willingness to testify before the committee. Welcome to everyone. This is the third hearing on the benghazi committee. The committee will come to order. The chair notes a quorum of two members for taking testimony is present. The chair will further note well, before i note that consistent with rules and practices of the house without objection well, that point has now been rendered moot. So you have been reappointed to th
Reduced while we maintain quality. That is part of the overall picture. The problem with health care thus far, and i have my own ideas about what we ought to do for health care and you can look at www. Ced. Org and read about it, the problem with the cost of health care is in significant part that Technology Enables us to do a lot of marvelous thing but the technology is expensive. And so part of what is Going Forward is how do we improve outcomes in our Health Care System including doing things that are just coming online that turn out to be very costly but can do very wonderful things for people. Thats going to be very difficult, but we need to we need to work on every front and improving the efficiency of the delivery of health care is probably tops at the list of what we need to do. And just touching on your broader question, i think one answer ive heard a lot from people have done this for a number of years is that the entitlement programs go directly into peoples pockets, especia
