Finding. It started under george w. Bush and was completed under president obama. There was a National Climate assessment that is required i law every four years. Republicans voted for that in 990. It calls out the dangers of Carbon Pollution and says it will increase ozone and asthma and hospital admissions. Climate change is projected to Harm Human Health by increasing groundlevel ozone. They specifically cite more Carbon Pollution as increasing Global Temperatures and increasing premature deaths and ozone and particle pollution. Is there any one of the four of you that has a problem with that analysis . Ok. Hey agree with that. I want to talk to my friend from alabama. I want to ask you this question. I have respect for your office and your opinion. Isnt it true that alabama lost all recent major Clean Air Act cases . They lost their legal challenge in the Supreme Court. In the White Stallion case they lost to the epa endangerment finding. Isnt that a fact . I dont doubt what youre

A pretty lengthy timeframe. You dont get to stay around that long unless you are really good at what you do, or just really lucky. I suggest those of those are good things. It doesnt hurt to be both. As he shared with you, and some thatu might have heard there are some interesting things going on back in my home state. Right now, there are a few Public Officials in travis withy who have taken issue an exercise of my constitutional veto authority. ,hese are fundamentally principles that are very important. Namely, a governors power to veto legislation and funding, and the right of free speech.

They have no standard of decency, of responsible Human Behavior stop i think the record is clear on that. Imminent readat to ev
