I believe the gentleman has two amendments today. Mr. LaMALFA. Yes. This first amendment is on the Klamath Project. Are the amendments out of order? They are out of numerical order. Mr. Chairman, I offer this amendment on the Sites…

It is an important and critical time for the State of California. We are facing an unprecedented drought that is affecting farms, families, and communities that are just being shut off from water, communities that are not only rationing…

Rather than restore the riverbeds themselves, we truck the fish around the river. That doesn't help the environment; it doesn't help the fish, and it certainly does not help the communities of California. What the rest of the country needs…

I would appreciate your support on H.R. 1688 to improve access to this important care for our veterans by adding 20 additional optometry residents to the VA over the next ten years.

Despite making improvements in the backlog of veterans' care in the VA via the CHOICE Act, there remains long wait times for patients to be seen within the VA.

This bill, 1688, is aimed at improving access to primary eye care in the VA by making a modest increase in the number of optometry residency positions in the VA.

No veteran should ever have to decide whether or not to sacrifice their health and safety to avoid a potential financial burden if the VA fails to pay for a trip to the emergency room.

But you have done that a couple of times already.

I pressed FRA on: If Positive Train Control is such a big priority, why are you not using California high-speed rail dollars to upgrade not only the corridor, but those connecting routes in California?

Thank you, Mr. Orseno.

Positive Train Control is one of the most ambitious, complex, and costly safety enhancements the railroad industry has ever undertaken.

I would like to thank Chairman Denham and Ranking Member Capuano for the opportunity to testify and share our experience.
