maybe not in massachusetts. but men and women who have lost paychecks, whose lives have been devastated by overregulation, that's a real concern, mr. speaker. and congress fortunately, in cooperation with this administration, is now leading our country back, not just towards energy independence, but energy dominance. energy dominance. and strong economic growth. and finally, jobs as a priority. and energy security. by rolling back onerous regulations that have harmed livelihoods and threatened our great resiliency. implementing a kindergarten tax would not only harm these efforts but it would result in massive job losses, lead to higher prices for american families and businesses, and jeopardize our energy security. my home state of kentucky relies heavily on fossil fuels. as our coal resources provide our state thousands of jobs and deliver 83% of our electricity. this allows tennesseans to enjoy some of the lowest -- kentuckians to enjoy some of the lowest electricity rates in the nation. so a carbon tax, mr.

i appreciate my colleague from massachusetts for speaking. congressman royce and myself have run this committee in a bipartisan way and, again, i think this bill is typical of good bipartisanship. it's a good bill for the united states. the peace corps shows people around the world america at its best. it shows our values. it shows our generosity. it shows our compassion. since its inception in 1961, volunteers have engaged in people-to-people diplomacy and community-based developments in 141 countries, on six continents. we in congress must do what we can to keep our current volunteers healthy and safe. so, again, i want to thank congressman poe and congressman kennedy. i want to also thank senator corker and senator feinstein for their companion bill in the senate. and i would also like to especially recognize three staff members. luke murray, orin, and janice, even though i'm massacring her last name, for their years of work on peace corps issues. we couldn't do this without the good work that our staffs do. and one of the things i'm very

one of my favorite artifacts from the massachusetts historical society.is to-do list for congress. you will not be able to see or your sitting. find it online. the fourth item on the left-hand side set government to be assumed in every colony. this is adams' strategy for getting to independence which convinced all the colonies they were basically in a state of anarchy and was time for them to write their own constitution. his product was build, then take away the old thing. then on the right-hand side fourth on the bottom, on the to-do list, declaration of independence. he worked consistently through 1775 and 1776 to get the colony to the point of being ready to write a constitution and declare independence. he works to get the committee that would draft the declaration after richard henry lee had stood up in congress and resolved the colonies should declare themselves free and independent states. these were the two who drove the process forward. so we are going to come back to that because we really, it is john adams who gave us the pursuit of happiness.
