I do not want to belabor this. Sometime I would like to pursue it and see what the schedule is and how that flow was from those facilities into more permanent treatment facilities and how quickly these people got back near their homes.
Ted Stevens
The Public Record
Ted Stevens was a prominent U.S. Senator from Alaska, serving from 1968 to 2009. A member of the Republican Party, he was known for his influential role in shaping federal policies related to aviation, telecommunications, and infrastructure. Stevens was a key advocate for modernizing the air traffic control system, emphasizing the need for quick action to prevent aviation gridlock. His tenure was marked by significant contributions to Alaska's development and federal funding for various projects in the state. Stevens was the longest-serving senator in Alaska's history and held several leadership positions, including Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman.

But that is a national thing, and with due respect, people from Alaska cannot quite make it down your way.
Well, we are very familiar with your program and we thank you very much for what you are doing.
I am concerned about the statements that I have heard of--including, I think, some of yours, General Myers--that you may be some $4 to $6 billion short in the fiscal year 2004 operating accounts.
