Mary Landrieu: “Thank you, Chairman Harkin and Ranking Member Enzi, for convening this very important hearing.”

Thank you for continuing your focus on this, because the work is not done, and there are billions and billions of dollars of projects that could be built.

There are a lot of people here who are very upset and very angry and very frustrated.

On behalf of our client, we would support a broadening of the coverage, but as long as it does not dilute the focus on the large projects that are on the dashboard.

I haven't heard that because for the last four days, I've been seeing dead bodies in the streets here in Mississippi.
