Conditions to congress should consider . Its a great question. The reality is as my testimony stated, we just dont know enough about the height tight oils that are coming out of america. What we do know is like i said theyre lighter oils. Refineries are set to run heavier crudes. Were setting ourselves up to be a refiner as we export possibly if theyre not flaired, lower gas leans to others. Control what were doing what handing off our oil. Think are real questions from a climate perspective. What are these oils . What are we giving away . Is there any other panelists would like to comment on this . Are there any other panelist thats would like to comment on this . Let me ask you, mr.

World is so poor, when just one week of military expenditure can bring all children to classrooms. I refuse to accept that all the laws and constitutions and police and judges, are unable to protect our children. I refuse to accept that the slavery can be stronger than freedom. I refuse to accept here. My only aim in life is that every child is free to be a child. Free to grow, free to eat, sleep, and see the light. Free to love and laugh and cry. Free to play and learn. Free to go to school. And tree to dream. I have the privilege of working with many courageous people, who have the same aim. We have never given up on any threat or attack, we will never. We have made progress in a couple of year, couple of decades. We have reduced the number of out of School Children by half. We have reduced the number of child laborers by a third. We have reduced child mortality, malnutrition, and we have prevented millions of child deaths. But let us make no mistake, the great challenges still remai

You knew you were kind of in a government process. And it really is a campaign and its about the votes on that committee who determines who gets a seat on a Committee Like ways and means. So youre talking to every member on that committee and theres a particular member that i that really wasnt for me. And i just didnt know what to do and just sort out out of the blue i dialed president fords office in california. Had you met him . I wasnt sure he knew me. I certainly knew him. His secretary answered the phone and said, oh, congressman camp, hold, and he got on the phone and said, dave, how are you . Then he said, you know, i used to be a leader. Somebody owes me a favor and ill make a call, and he did, and that person came to me on the floor and said anybody who can get former president of the United States to call me im for. And so h
[ applause ] [ speak being foreigning Foreign Language ] [ speaking Foreign Language ] friends, Noble Committee inviting me to present a lecture. Respectfully, i am unable to do that, because i am presenting here, the sound of silence. The cry of innocence, and the face of invisibility. Those children who are left behind. Thats why, i have kept an empty chair as to remind us. As a reminder. I have come here only to share the voices and dreams of our children. Because they are all our children. I have looked into their frighteppfrigh frightened and exhausted eyes. I have held their injured bodies and have felt their broken spirits. 20 years ago, in the foot hills, a small, skinny child. He asked me, is the world so poor, instead of forcing me to take a gun. A child soldier that was kidnapped boy an extremist militia. As his first lesson, he was forced to kill his friends and family. He asked me, what is my fault . 12 years ago, a child murder from the streets of colombia, trafficked, an
The United States, i will follow up on your comment here, are we ready to be able to expand . Or do we need to expand refining capabilities in the United States if were going to have a mix of more sweet and then the heavier crude from canada . Who wants to go with that one . Well, its difficult to convince refiners to expand capacity when the demand here in the u. S. Is going down. Typically, refineries are built closer to where consumers are.
