Resilient, whic ways that we bee are going to help both businesses and consumers. The bill includes investments in Energy Storage which helps integrate Renewable Energy. It has provisions for advanced grid technologies, which really help make our electricity grid smarter and more intelligent to move Energy Around more efficiently. It has Cybersecurity Research and development. I dont think there will be anybody here in the senate that wont support this more robust effort on cybersecurity, given the challenges and threats we face. It has a focus on new renewable technologies, which are great brickintroduce in helping to which are great breakthroughs in helping to drive some costs. The cost is basically onethird to onehalf less of newgeneration services. This chart here focusing on that is the question of whether you want to pay 4. 6 cents a kilowatt for production or 12 cents a kilowatt for production. I know this id rather pay 4. 6 cents. I would rather drive the efficiency down to the

Either has to be evidence of crime or a belief by your investigators that there is, in fact, a crime that has been committed that youre investigating. Isnt that correct . There has to believe that there is still evidence necessary to be looked at to determine whether or not a criminal statute has been violated. Mr. Cole, i really appreciate the dodging on behalf of koran, but my question needs to be answered. Behalfnot dodging on of the crime. That would be a frivolous investigation at some point, wouldnt it . You continue looking into crimes for years of innocent people when there is not a smidgen of evidence. You continue a criminal investigation with months or years without any evidence just because in the long run you think it might happen . That is a yes or no. Do you do that . I outlined a rather repugnant comment that has been made about this chair and this committee that we are continuing to investigate wrongdoing in in washington led by lois lerner. We continue to investigate
You want when youre a governor. Governor branstad picked really wisely four years ago. Theres no reason to change a winning team right in the middle of a winning streak. So please give as much support to Lieutenant Governor reynolds as you give governor branstad. Shes earned it, and shes great. [ applause ] now here we are. Were at scott county. Now, you know, i probably shouldnt say this, but when i was walking in, branstad said this is the best county. This is just incredible. These guys, i never lose in scott county. I never lose in scott county. These are really good, good supporters of our party. And so for all of you who are here tonight, and i turn to the chair while governor branstad was talking and said, this is such an amazing turnout in the middle of july, for you all to be here, supporting this team and this ticket in the middle of july when you could be doing lots of other things, it is incredibly impressive for me to see all of you out here. And so i can tell you that wer
Schulman, in a 2008 president bush appointee was asked, did the Citizens United case in any way affect the irs process by handling tax exempt applications. His answer, no. To the best of my knowledge, it did not. Likewise, the head of the Elections Crime Branch said it is the law, so no, i am not aware of any effort or part of any effort to fix a problem from Citizens United. While republicans continue to promote their unfounded allegations, they conveniently overlook the furnling of dark money into elections. 501c organizations are not barred from participating in political campaigns. But the regulations are clear, they state political activity must be a substantial amount of the groups activity less than 50 . These groups can already gain Tax Exemption as a section 572 organization. That would require them to disclose their donors rather than keeping the American People in the dark about where theyre getting their money. As i repeatedly stated, anonymous money in politics disrupts th
