"Rural development and other investments are part of the way we invest in small towns."

"I wonder if you might speak about the impact of those cuts on the farm and rural economy?"

"I want to thank you for the hearing today--I am a proud co-sponsor--and, Senator Wyden, for your passion on this, the CHRONIC Care Act."
