Repeated budget cuts have tested blms ability to keep up with industry demand for new permits and to enforce safety and environmental standards. Thats why the president s budget calls on congress to support a strong on shore inspection program, partly funded through fees. This proposal takes a page from the offshore Energy Industry where industry pays fees for permits and inspections. Which means we can keep pace with the work load, and we dont have to divert funds from other programs to support permitting, leasing or inspection activities. Coupled with the transition to a new automated permitting system, which is under way, that eliminates paper applications, these Budget Resources will strengthen the capacity to do its job well. Thats a perfect example in the budget where Congress Needs to move beyond mindless austerity, brought about by sequestration and i can tell you, my first year in this job was 2013. I thought i left the private sector for this . Crazy budget. But this enables
It was an inclusive conversation. I am privileged to be here on behalf of the irish people. It is quite unique for a country as small as ireland to reach right to the center of things in the white house and we thank you, president obama, and your wife and family, and your administration for allowing our country to have this access. We are very positive for the future. President obama i should point out that the Prime Minister got me a copy of poems by yates by yeats, one of my favorite poets. Thank you, guys. Thank you.

Competitors who are investing heavily in renewable and next Generation Energy technologies. I strongly urge that we defeat the previous question and i urge a no vote on the underlying bill. I yield back the balance of my time. The speaker pro tempore the gentleman from colorado yields back the balance of his time. The gentleman from texas is recognized. Mr. Burgess thank you mr. Speaker. I yield myself the balance of our time. The speaker pro tempore the gentleman is recognized. Mr. Burgess i cannot recall a place in the constitution where it says the house passes a bill, the senate cant pass it, so the house comes back and tries to find a better bill that maybe the senate will now take up. I wish that had happened on that health care stuff back in 2009 and 2010, we would have a lot better world today. The fact of the matter is the house has passed the student loan bill. The senate has the obligation to act. The deadline of july 1 was in fact provided to us by a funding clip the democr
If we sacrifice the future, do we really take care of all the past cleanup . We hardly do whats necessary, even with current funding.
