"This is going to be a very challenging year. I am committed to doing what I can to make sure that you and the Coast Guard have the resources you need to carry out the missions we have asked you to do."

"People have to recognize the reality that cross-border trade is increasing."

"But for these small or large plants, when they report, to have that information shared appropriately at State and Federal levels..."

"I believe the topline given to the Coast Guard in the President's budget request is wholly inadequate."
