At a time when high energy prices are wreaking havoc on consumers, the Department of Energy should be making energy efficiency a top priority. Instead, the federal governments efficiency program is in shambles. This litigation should provide the necessary prod to get these efficiency standards back on track.

This is a critical government program that is in complete shambles. We are talking about simple, common- sense responsibility to shield American consumers from rising energy prices.

Project 7th Grade is making a positive difference in the lives of kids. The recent Arizona State University study found that 75 percent of participating parents felt that the program likely improved their family's communication about the harmful effects of drugs, and nearly 75 percent of the parents surveyed felt the program likely helped deter their children from using them. Adding the prescription drug element into this program will further enhance its reach and benefit to parents and teenagers.
