                   CLIMATE CHANGE IS KILLING HUMANITY

  (Mr. TED LIEU of California asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. TED LIEU of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise because the majority 
is making worse the one issue that can kill humanity as a species--
climate change. The majority's budget exacerbates America's 
overdependence on foreign oil and reliance on the dirty and unsafe 
fuels of the 19th century.
  But there is a better way. We need to produce more energy-saving 
appliances and machines that are designed, manufactured, and installed 
by American workers. It is time to invest in new and renewable energies 
that never go away, such as wind, solar, and biofuels. It is time to do 
what is best for America, not what is best for coal companies.
  Mr. Speaker, let me end by saying: Go, UCLA.
