I have repeatedly called on the Army Corps to cease using glyphosate in the Los Angeles River, and have proposed amendments to Appropriations legislation to require the Corps to do so.

I appreciate this opportunity to highlight this important measure and I ask for your help to include it in the new WRDA bill.

I strongly support funding to address the damage wrought by high lake levels and invest in long-term approaches to prevent this damage in the future.

I am flexible and open on how we accomplish this objective in a way that works for all states.

I believe that Federal agencies should always strive to respect the desires of the local communities in which they work, particularly when using potentially harmful chemicals on public lands.

I urge the Committee to consider such a provision as it drafts a Water Resources Development Act for 2020, and I remain committed to supporting the Corps' important work maintaining and restoring the Los Angeles River.

I am proud to partner once again with the Chairwoman to ensure strong support for the project in the FY2021 appropriations cycle.

I urge you to include language in your bill for the Army Corps to account for these issues when determining feasibility and to help flood-prone, low-income areas fund projects to increase resiliency and prevent flood damage.

WRDA 2020 represents a tremendous opportunity to move forward and achieve even greater strides to protecting my constituents.

Completion of this project will ensure downtown Flagstaff and Northern Arizona University are no longer under the threat of major flooding.

The cost of doing nothing is greater than the cost of doing something.

For 15 years, I have worked tirelessly with dedicated stakeholders in my district to make the Sacramento region as safe as possible for all residents.
