More From Dave Reichert

I've known rivers: i've known rivers ancient as the world and older than the flow of human blood in human veins. my soul has grown deep like the rivers. i bathed in the euphrates when dawns were young. i built my hut near the congo and it lulled me to sleep. i looked upon the nile and raised the pyramids above it. i heard the singing of the mississippi when abe lincoln went down to new orleans, and i've seen its muddy bosom turn all golden in the sunset. i've known rivers: ancient, dusky rivers. my soul has grown deep like the rivers.

At the end of the day, no amount of investing, no amount of clean electrons, no amount of energy efficiency will save the natural world if we are not paying attention to it - if we are not paying attention to all the things that nature give us for free: clean air, clean water, breathtaking vistas, mountains for skiing, rivers for fishing, oceans for sailing, sunsets for poets, and landscapes for painters. what good is it to have wind-powered lights to brighten the night if you can't see anything green during the day? just because we can't sell shares in nature doesn't mean it has no value.

There is nothing so american as our national parks. the scenery and the wildlife are native. the fundamental idea behind the parks is native. it is, in brief, that the country belongs to the people, that it is in process of making for the enrichment of the lives of all of us. the parks stand as the outward symbal of the great human principle.

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and cheer and give strength to body and soul alike. this natural beauty-hunger is made manifest in the little window-sill gardens of the poor, though perhaps only a geranium slip in a broken cup, as well as in the carefully tended rose and lily gardens of the rich, the thousands of spacious city parks and botanical gardens, and in our magnificent national parks — the yellowstone, yosemite, sequoia, etc. — nature's sublime wonderlands, the admiration and joy of the world.

Our president delivered his state of the union message to congress. that is one of the things his contract calls for -- to tell congress the condition of the country. this message, as i say, is to congress. the rest of the people know the condition of the country, for they live in it, but congress has no idea what is going on in america, so the president has to tell 'em.

I will continue to fight for legislation that forces congress to read the bills! i will fight for a vote on my bill that calls for a waiting period for each page of legislation. i will continue to object when congress sticks special interest riders on bills in the dead of night! and if congress refuses to obey its own rules, if congress refuses to pass a budget, if congress refuses to read the bills, then i say: sweep the place clean. limit their terms and send them home!
