Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of my bill, H.R. 8946, the Reversionary Interest Conveyance Act. This bill provides a technical correction that will help unlock the innovative potential of Sacramento. It provides the BLM with the clear authority to convey 8\1/2\ acres of former railroad right-of-way in Sacramento. This will allow the city of Sacramento, Sacramento State University, and their partners to continue moving forward on the Sacramento Center for Innovation, a research park that will allow Sacramento to retain and grow the level of talent the region needs to attract investment and business. We support our innovators, our educators, and our businesses because we know that these economic drivers don't just support job and community growth today, they sustain them for generations. Because of this, I really support this bill. It is something that is very, very needed. I thank the chair and ranking member for their support of this bill. I urge my colleagues to support this bill.”
