Congressman Lieu, an interesting fact about that number. NASA projects that by 2050, between $66 billion and $106 billion worth of existing coastal property will likely be below sea level nationwide, with $238 billion to $507 billion worth of property below sea level by 2100.

I believe you also serve today as a reservist. If you will, talk about the national security threat because of climate change.
