I have been in the same church my entire life. I worked at one company, Bain, for 25 years, and I left that to go off and help save the Olympic Games.

States typically have the responsibility for allocating water. That's not entirely correct, of course.

That's going to enable water savings of over 1,800 acre feet, and also contribute to better water sustainability in the important energy resource development of the Uinta basin of eastern Utah.

Thank you. I appreciate the bipartisan nature in which we do this. These are truly American heroes who have made a difference in our lives and something we should all be proud of and never forget. I worry as these gentlemen get older that…

But, again, the fact that they continue to go back to PBMs suggests that there is efficiency somewhere.

I certainly believe with the emerging health care reimbursement models, this will be even more important.

Are you suggesting that because only 5 percent of the audits that could be conducted, in fact, are being conducted?

I see that my time has expired. Thank you very much.
