The majority’s continued dysfunction jeopardizes this Committee’s ability to meet the significant challenges we face, including many that are attacked in the bill before us.
This bill funds incredibly important programs that can unlock America’s full economic and environmental potential. Unfortunately, to say the process by which this Congress is proceeding is in disarray would be understating where we find ourselves.
The budget request for the Department of Energy, while providing healthy increases of 9% to defense accounts, unfortunately, slashes the non-defense energy accounts by more than a third, of which science is cut by 17%.
