Famous quotes by Lois Capps:

"The most effective way to save endangered species is to protect the places they need to live,"

"I read that in the Wall Street Journal, and I find it rather offensive,"

"The problem is, the Endangered Species Act does need to be modernized, ... but the people in charge just want to do away with it."

"I am concerned about it with so many endangered species right in the Santa Barbara County area,"

"All these provisions will weaken our ability to protect endangered species, ... while encouraging more costly litigation and draining money from important conservation measures."

"Hurricane Katrina has starkly illustrated what real poverty exists in our country today, ... To cut holes in the health care safety-net for our fellow Americans in need is unconscionable. It is immoral to ask people who have lost everything to pay more for health care."

"Picking up and going on, I believe, is my way of dealing with that enormous shock."

"This just looks like the oil and gas industry are shamelessly using the tragedy of Katrina and Rita to try and push their special-interest agenda through Congress. We need to address our energy needs, but we don't need to jeopardize our environment and economy to do it, and we shouldn't use a national tragedy as cover for bad policy."

"Obviously, the real test of these regulations will be their implementation, ... It is absolutely critical that the Air Force leadership ensure that these regulations are well understood and strictly enforced, especially at the Air Force Academy."

"It's an institution with clear lines of authority. Well, if a person in authority over you says you are going to burn in hell unless you convert, that carries a lot of weight with a young cadet."
