And I think if the Kansas City region and our States can make a focused effort to solve the workforce shortage in one sector, or one sub-sector like cyber security, that gives us an opportunity to carve a niche for ourselves and grow from…
I think that is an area where our office can definitely try to get folks connected.
I thank Representative Davids and Representative Cleaver for bringing the attention of this particular topic in small businesses.
I would love to toot the horn of the third district because I think that some of our high schools and school districts are already getting out in front of that now.
If we do not help each other, we as a country will not keep our innovative edge in the world in United States.
This is where I think what we have seen today is where business and Government can come together to work on programs to educate, to train, and retrain, and create that workforce for the 21st century economy that we need.
This bipartisan bill, which I introduced with Representative Hagedorn, will reauthorize Women's Business Centers for 4 years.
Questions from Hon. Sharice Davids and Hon. Steve Cohen to Dan Mathews, Commissioner, Public Buildings Service, U.S. General Services Administration.
I am glad the committee is considering this bill today, the 'Women's Business Centers Improvements Act of 2019.'
I do worry though that that streamlining may have eroded some of the safeguards that ensure that we have proper certification and eligibility for the program.
I am excited to be able to participate in this hearing today because the 8(a) program presents a unique and valuable opportunity for small businesses to compete for valuable Federal contracts.
I have been more concerned about the issues that have come to light about eligibility requirements for Native American contractors participating in the 8(a) program.
I definitely am determined to do everything I can while during my time here in Congress to increase patients' access to health care.
That kind of arduous paperwork just to provide the right care to patients imposes increased administrative costs.
I appreciate Chairwoman Norton for highlighting in her opening statement the tolling and congestion strategies that are inherently linked to issues of equity.
My constituents consistently tell me that they want to see smart, sustainable, and resilient infrastructure so we can build the foundation for economic growth for the future.
They are frustrated. They are disheartened by the way that prior authorization and STEP therapy are used to delay care.
As someone who is on this committee, I am very committed to a thoughtful review of the entire process...
Thank you, again, Mr. Njoroge and Mr. Stumo, for coming here and being the voices that are sharing with the Members of Congress what we need to do to make sure that the trust of the folks who are getting onto planes exists.
The Cabin Air Safety Act, introduced this year by Congressman Garamendi, specifically mentions carbon monoxide detectors.
Studying the problem of access to credit for veterans and reservists is a crucial first step in finding solutions.
the fact that you said that Boeing has never reached out to the families really stuck out to me.
