Our rural communities really do need the economic boost from having a government agency.

the President's budget is dead on arrival in Congress

I thank the gentleman from Arizona for yielding time. I thank the two gentlemen from Texas for introducing the topic to the American people. This is something every American should be aware of. They say a picture is worth a thousand words…
