I am proud of what this budget does. It includes a 30 percent increase in discretionary funding for child welfare programs.
We must ensure that they are doing so in a way that makes sense, both financially and in a way that is a meaningful effort to protect the environment.
I want to thank you for your continued work as the administrator, and putting an emphasis on diversity and racial equity.
I firmly believe that increasing opportunities and federal internships can help foster youth enter the workforce and gain critical experience.
