John Mica: “The Federal response was just unacceptable with housing.”

Today I am asking my colleagues for support of this noncontroversial amendment. This amendment would facilitate simply a land transfer from the Army Corps of Engineers to the Department of the Interior to hold in trust for the Muscogee…

But, one, we don't have an inventory of vacant Federal properties or underutilized Federal properties. That's a given.

This is disgraceful, that we have Federal properties around the country--and the Department of Agriculture--again, went out there, visited, requested that we come up with a proposal.

We tried to get them to comply, but they never did fully comply.
