Roy Blunt: “Thank you, Dr. Collins and the Institute directors with you today.”

This is a unique Committee, and the opportunity to be so involved all the time...

Senator Blunt's longstanding promise of expanding the reach and resources of the Nation's Registry has saved thousands of lives.

I am glad to get a chance to talk while Senator Manchin and Senator Collins, both good friends of mine who are here, and talk about some of the reasons for the hearing today.

I know I am leaving the Committee in good hands as Senator Fischer moves into the position of Ranking Member at the beginning of the next Congress.
