As a lifelong Oregonian, I prefer our forests green, not black.

As federal lawmakers, we have a responsibility to set a precedent for energy efficient practices.

It is up to us as lawmakers to provide the resources and streamlined processes that will enable our federal forest managers to become the best possible steward of our lands.

Removing substantial fuel loads from our forests helps prevent catastrophic fire and better protects species, watersheds and neighboring communities that call them home.

We also have to stop the flow of precursor chemicals that meth cooks use to boil up this poison.

A $1.7 billion average increase in electricity costs is estimated to result in a $1.3 billion decrease in personal income and a loss of 13,000 more jobs in the region.

The Round-Up is a wonderful community celebration, and I greatly enjoy the chance to visit with residents and see so many families enjoying the festivities offered throughout the week.

The war on meth must be fought with a multi-pronged approach.

Large corporations and unions know the power of being big enough to bargain for better rates.

I did not come to Washington to raise the electricity rates by as much as $40 per month as this plan would do.

In addition to hydropower, Oregon and the Northwest have pioneering companies leading the way in environmentally friendly energy technology.

The closer the people of all races get to Christ and His cross, the closer they will get to one another.

How many times must hope die before tears were too deep to bear?

There is a promise made in any bed

You can't break what's broken already.

A lot of people die giving birth to their children who have AIDS and HIV and a lot of people don't survive after a time because they've been sick too.

I accept the calling of my generation to give our children the America that was given to us, with opportunity for the young and security for the old - and I know that we are ready.

The feminine is more powerful than the masculine, the soft is more powerful than the hard, the water is more powerful than the rock.

Action and care will in time wear down the strongest frame, but guilt and melancholy are poisons of quick dispatch.

I'm putting all my money in the Chinese toy market.
