Jim Costa: “I thank the gentleman from New Mexico.”

I appreciate your support for this project in this year's bill and ask that you provide the remaining funds necessary in fiscal year 2025 to complete the general re-evaluation report.

I think that farmers, ranchers, dairymen and -women are critical in so many different ways, but they are also stewards of the environment.

We must begin a new feasibility study so the Corps of Engineers can investigate flood risk management needs as well as potential modifications to improve the dam's safety.

I think we all pray that we can come together on a farm bill before the end of the year.
