Congressman Peter Roskam discusses his solutions to our energy needs, and the majority's unwillingness to bring relief to American families. Congressman Roskam offered an amendment to HR 6063, the NASA Authorization Act, that would have struck from the bill plans for a Deep Space Climate Observatory and instead would have created a research and development initiative for an alternative fuel for commercial aviation. The amendment directed the initiative to consider the need to reduce our reliance on foreign sources of energy, provide stability to the airline industry, and reduce emissions. Rather than hearing bipartisan solutions, the majority insisted on a partisan roster of amendments devoid of any solutions that will bring relief to the American people. Instead of pursuing solutions, the majority is still searching for a problem.

Congressman Peter Roskam went to the House floor to protest being shut out of debate on HR 6049, an energy tax bill. Instead of embracing Mr. Roskam's common-sense solution to our energy challenges in transportation, the majority would not allow debate on any amendments. Congressman Roskam offered an amendment that would have provided states and local units of government the benefits of a tax credit for bi-fuel vehicles. The amendment represented a unique opportunity for governmental entities to move their vehicle fleets to alternative fuels, to realize environmental benefits and cost savings on fuel, and broaden the market for wider commercial application.
