Listen to: U.S. Rep. Rick Boucher (D-VA)

Well, oil is being developed in Alaska at the present time from a number of sites. … That development can and should continue. On the other hand, I do not favor having oil development in what is known as the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge. That refuge is a home for caribou. It is a place where even the slightest disturbance in terms of resource development could have a dramatic adverse affect on that herd.
