I would like to recognize Congressman Schneider now for 5 minutes.

We will keep doing that the best we can here in Washington to make sure that Iowans are heard loud and clear.

I am very grateful for you to be here today and tell your story.

Ms. Reese, you are an inspiration, and it is an honor to get to meet you here today.

Just wondering if you can touch even more on how important it is that we invest in our infrastructure, our roads, our bridges, and our locks and dams for our farmers.

I have watched firsthand the last few years as retaliation from the current trade wars has caused unease, uncertainty, and economic losses across the heartland.

It is important we continue to have these discussions.

I grew up in a union family, and I also have a sister and brother-in-law who are corn and soybean farmers.

It is vital we retain access to new and expanding markets, but also use our economic power to ensure that the American worker and our farms and businesses are competing on a level playing field.

One of the things that keeps me up at night, and I am sure many of you as well, are the long-term effects of what has now become a very long drawn out trade war process.

I am committed to fighting like hell to make sure I am doing everything I can to preserve that way of life.
