Dear
Friend,
Last
week,
I
delivered the
Weekly
Republican
Address
highlighting
Congress'
achievements
on
behalf
of
the
nation
and
the
opportunities
ahead
in
2017.
We
have
much
work
ahead
of
us,
but
we
are
committed
to
working
hard
to
do
everything
that
we
can
to
deliver
more
opportunities
to
Americans
tomorrow
than
they
have
today.

Meeting
with
Rex
Tillerson,
Intended
Secretary
of
State
Nominee
Earlier
this
week, I
met with
Mr.
Tillerson
and
learned
more
about
his
approach
to
serving
as
America’s
top
diplomat.
Mr.
Tillerson
is
an
accomplished
businessman
and
job
creator
who
has
a
firm
grasp
on
geopolitics,
and
I
am
confident
in
Chairman
Corker’s
ability
to
lead
a
fair
and
thorough
confirmation
process.
Meeting
with
Governor
Rick
Perry,
Intended
Secretary
of
Energy
Nominee
I
also
had
a
thoughtful
discussion
with
Governor
Perry
and
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
him
about
his
approach
to
responsible
energy
production
and
achieving
America’s
energy
independence.
We
discussed
the
importance
of
the
Department
of
Energy’s
National
Renewable
Energy
Laboratory
(NREL)
located
in
Colorado.
NREL
is
instrumental
in
the
advancement
of
the
nation’s
renewable
energy
and
energy
efficiency,
and
plays
an
important
role
in
electrical
grid
modernization
and
protecting
our
grid
from
cybersecurity
threats.
Governor
Perry
is
a
proven
leader
who
worked
to
bring
jobs
and
economic
growth
to
Texas,
and
I’m
confident
in
his
all-of-the-above
energy
strategy
to
lead
the
Department
of
Energy.
Colorado's
Obamacare
Exchange's
Misuse
of
Federal
Funds
A
recent
Denver
Post
article revealed
that Colorado’s
Obamacare
exchange
treated
taxpayer
dollars
like
monopoly
money
and
now
the
American
people
are
on
the
hook
for
its
federal
loan.
Another
example
of
an
Obamacare
failure,
the
Colorado
exchange
sheds
light
on
a
broken
system
built
on
lofty
promises
that
was
unsustainable
and
mismanaged
from
its
inception.
