May I inquire how much time is remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Missouri has 20 minutes remaining. The gentleman from Washington has 13 minutes remaining.
It's incumbent upon us in general aviation to do everything we can to encourage young people to choose a career in aviation.
GA facilities are an incredible asset in our district, and I would like to take this opportunity to ask the Treasury Department: return our phone calls and emails, please.
I look forward to working with the subcommittee, the full committee, particularly with my friend Garret Graves, and coming together with a bipartisan bill that helps America's fliers, and passengers, and everybody connected to aviation.
We have to make sure that we figure out how to break down those barriers to get young people involved.

I have said many times before that one of the worst things that happened when it comes to the FAA is when advocacy was removed from the mission statement.

In closing, H.R. 346, as amended, takes a very important step in ensuring that America's National Airspace System is going to remain intact, remain operational, and remain safe for the American people. Again, I thank Mr. Stauber and Mr…
