Jerry Moran actually said...

"We have never been officially notified of a shortfall to begin with."

"Thank you, Chairman Moran, Ranking Member Merkley, and members of this subcommittee for inviting me to testify today at your hearing on the Importance of Rural Development."

"I do not know of any piece of legislation or Federal program that has been more helpful and enriched the lives of so many as the Rural Development Act."

"We are from the government. We are here to help you."
