I respectfully oppose the gentleman's well-intentioned amendment. TIGER is a national program, and we support cities of all sizes having a chance to get a grant, and we work to ensure there is a balance between urban and rural areas. I am afraid that the well- intentioned amendment from the gentleman seeks to undo that delicate balance at this time. Madam Chair, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Price).
