On the recordJune 19, 2008
The committee and its leadership and this institution have a long history of working together to find consensus solutions for the tragedies that befall Americans. The people of Iowa and the Midwest are watching us and waiting for a helping hand to recover from this horrific tragedy. I sincerely appreciate the great help that the House of Representatives is giving the State and throughout the Midwest, and look forward to working on an ongoing basis to make this happen.
