Doug LaMalfa: “we are somehow not in favor of your mission and firefighting and forest management.”

We should pass this bill because the Indian people need it but also as a tribute to our dear friend Don Young.

But it shouldn't require you having to come hat in hand to this place and ask a Congress Member to run a bill so you can purchase a piece of land that might be surplus already to the government.

What we are looking at is the dam removal project so far is a disaster.

I also want to express our deep appreciation to Congressman Doug LaMalfa as the prime sponsor of this bill.
