On the recordOctober 28, 2019
This morning I want to stop and say thanks to Mother Nature for all the blessings she has given Kansas, in particular the fact that we are an energy rich State. She has given us oil, natural gas, ethanol, wind, and solar production. We want to stop and applaud the efforts of what the USDA and the Department of Energy formally did last week as they began working together to facilitate energy-related investments in America's rural communities to encourage investments in our new and improved rural energy production and infrastructure. Additional focus on cybersecurity and grid improvements to secure our rural energy networks are also happening. This work builds upon President Trump's energy task force on agriculture and rural prosperity. Mr. Speaker, I thank the President so much for making rural America stronger today. ____________________
