The Public Record
I'm sure you share my concern about all the taxpayer dollars spent on Mod Waters, and it not working simply because of a holdup with this land exchange.
The schedule the Park Service itself publicly posted for the project shows the agency publishing a draft Environmental Impact Study (EIS) last month. That didn't happen.
From the perspective of wanting to protect the natural integrity of the Park, I think it's much more preferable to have power lines on the outside edge of the Park than running right through the middle of the Park.
Any adverse alteration to it, its provisions, or its implementation will be taken as a sign that Egypt is no longer interested in being a force for peace and stability.
I would caution any future Government of Egypt to tread very, very carefully.
I am deeply concerned that the recent violence against the Egyptian Christian community... may be indicative of the direction Egypt is heading in.
I cannot overstate the gravity of this situation, which seriously calls into question the Government of Egypt's commitment to the principles of democratic governance.
We need to stand as aggressively and as solidly with the Filipino Government in their confronting an aggressive, arrogant China.
I would hope that, now that they have a President who is committed to bringing down the level of corruption, that we will reverse that emphasis.
I am deeply concerned about the economic consequences that this long and drawn-out process has on businesses in my District in Rhode Island.
