This project is too important to give up on, and we again offer legislation to green-light it.

We are going to be discussing H.R. 3, the Northern Route Approval Act, which would remove the federal delays that continue to block the Keys...

But I want to thank all of you for being here today on this very important hearing.

We are going to be focused on drafting some legislation in which we can have a national debate on it.
