Mr. Tonko, thank you so very much for joining us tonight and your leadership on this whole range of issues. It is about tomorrow. Tomorrow will be solid for America if we build a solid foundation, and that foundation is the infrastructure. It is the research facilities, the sanitation, the water facilities, the highway and rail facilities. The President has made a proposal. It is up to us to respond to that. Six years, fully paid for, no increase in the gasoline and diesel tax, it is all there. All we need to do is grab it and grab the future in the process. I am happy for the opportunity to share this evening on building tomorrow's future. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________
