"Drilling in the refuge will not solve America's energy problem. The Energy Department's own figures show that drilling would not change gas prices by more than a penny a gallon, and this would be 20 years from now"

About this Quote
In this quote, Lois Capps is expressing her belief that drilling in the sanctuary will not be an option to America's energy issue. She supports her argument by pointing out the Energy Department's figures, which show that even if drilling were to take place, it would just lead to a very little modification in gas costs, specifically a penny per gallon.
