Madam Chair, I yield myself such time as I may consume. I just want to point out those weren't my words. That was the information we got from the U.S. Forest Service that said there is no funding in this bill. If this bill passes without additional funding in the future, they will have to lay off 610 wildland firefighters. Maybe there is going to be a bill in the future to pour more money into the Forest Service, but this bill doesn't do it. Madam Chair, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Thompson), the ranking member of the Committee on Agriculture.
