I just want you to know that that is a very important issue to the entire airspace issue in the Phoenix metropolitan region.
Do you see any challenges with implementing this staffing solution by the 18-month deadline outlined in the reauthorization bill?
I want to ask you about the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway's air traffic control tower.
My home state of Arizona has led the way in enacting such policies that keep prices low and ensure more sustainable options are available as we work to build the infrastructure funded by the BIL.

Thank you for the opportunity to testify today on Arizona's water resource needs and the importance of federal investments.
Lack of communication has been a significant issue. The delay is a significant issue, and it is a project not just important to the city of Maricopa, but really the entire Maricopa County because flooding in that area would be devastating.
I am extraordinarily frustrated that the significant delay in advancing this project is causing harm to the community.
