General Saltzman has a very small entity... but a very important one. His mission is absolutely critical in the country.
I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the last speaker, my friend, Earl Blumenauer. It was a source of pride for me to be here on the floor this morning and see the gentleman's last speech on the floor of the House of Representatives…
I think a lot of us up here would agree that the federal bureaucracy has become bloated, but I think we need to be a little bit more precise in downsizing a department with a mission as critical.
By the way, I have got to leave here in a minute and go meet with the city of Fort Smith board of directors.
