And so basically, my opinion ill conclude that we dont need tar sands because of the Carbon Pollution that comes from it. We have our own sources of oil. Were using less oil because our cars are more efficient. The pipeline isnt going to help lower gas prices or enhance our Global Security or fight Climate Change. For all these reasons i oppose the bill and request that the committee grant an open rule allowing amendments to be offered, at a minimum. Thank you. Thank you very much.

I disagreed with him last year on gun control, so much so that when i voted no on his legislation, mayor bloomberg of new york city ran ads in arkansas criticize major league for standing up for your second mendment rights. I disagree with obama
