# Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.): "There is a case to be made that, in the contest between corporate profits and children's lungs, someone should be standing up for children's lungs."

# Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.): "People on the other side can talk about costs [of EPA safeguards]. What's the cost of a life? What's the cost of a disability? ... We're not going to cower in a corner."
