"Mr. Mica. We have heard other disasters, Irene, still back to Katrina, in which there are obligations that have been made."

"I need to thank this committee and the appropriators for fully funding the Disaster Relief Fund in the previous budget."

"I want to thank this committee and the House of Representatives for finally recognizing the sovereignty of the federally recognized tribes."

"We want to find a way to make certain that this process moves forward as quickly, efficiently, and as responsibly."
