I hope you can commit to continuing this program. It is vanishingly small in the scope of your total budget.
I just want to begin by thanking you and Ranking Member Leahy for the very constructive bipartisan way in which you have worked together.
I would invest $100 million in advance over the next decade to make sure you have enough well-trained, deployed, capable inspectors.
Thank you. I am grateful for your return.
I will urge you to reconsider, based on experience at the port, two dredging cycles a year.
Thank you for your forbearance and for your sound and solid leadership of this subcommittee and others.
I think it would make a significant different for harbors across the country, not just in my home State of Delaware.
I am hopeful that we can work together to find resources.
I am grateful for your continued support for a project that is near and dear to my constituents, the Delaware River dredging.
Thank you for your courage, for sharing your stories today.
U.S. leadership, to me, is critically important.
