I strongly support the Capito-Gillibrand amendment to the Senate version of the NDAA, which requires polluters to report these discharges.

I feel that we, more so than any, have the means to provide everyone with clean water.

This hearing today is one of the most important hearings of my congressional career.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 248, line 19, after the dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $20,000,000)''. Page 249, line 1, after…
