 [It's] backdoor budget chicanery, ... By shoehorning the Arctic refuge into the budget, they are making an end-run around the legislative process, knowing it cannot pass the Senate any other way.

 Nancy Johnson has moved from being a quiet champion of the wilderness bill to leading the charge in opposition to the Republican leadership's effort to open the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. She has at least twice penned a Dear Colleague letter to the Budget Committee Chair and the leadership urging that they not use the budget process to advance Arctic drilling and got a dozen of her moderate Republican colleagues to join.

 Jim Nussle has said that a clean budget is one of his top priorities, and he has proven that today by keeping dicey policy language that has no budgetary consequence, namely drilling in the Arctic refuge, out of the budget.

 Unlike their colleagues across the Capitol, the House Budget Committee refrained from undermining the federal budget process and kept Arctic drilling out of its spending plan. Sadly, they also kept out enough funding for clean water, clean air and other public health and natural resources protections, which were cut by about 10 percent.

 We applaud those in Congress who have refused to let drilling proponents manipulate them and the democratic process.

 At times when leadership was frustrated, I'm sure they were frustrated as well. They kept an even keel and kept us on the right path. Republicans went into this budget with very little expectation that we would be standing here today having participated fully in the budget process. ... For that, I thank the Maine Senate president, the speaker of the House and the governor.

 We are very confident we can defeat any attempt to include Arctic drilling in any budget bill on the House side.

 These 'sense of the Senate' resolutions should not really hold up the budget because they don't really affect the budget,

 Congress usually puts aside every budget from the President and will write their own. We will be working with our Congressional delegation as Congress writes their budget, so farmers shouldn't get too worked up until we get to the budget writing committees. This is the first step in a long process.

 We thank those Senators, both Republican and Democrat, who stood firm against tremendous pressure from the Bush administration, pro-drilling members of Congress and their allies in the oil industry. They recognize that the budget is an inappropriate place to decide controversial national policy matters like America's energy policy. We urge all members of Congress to remain steadfast in their belief that the vast, unspoiled wilderness of America?s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is more than a line item in the Federal Budget.

 We see a lot of merit in the bill, but it is a budget issue. It would have to be worked out as part of the budget process.
