I am ready to have the necessary and tough deliberations about how best to spend our limited Federal resources.

I think when you look at the firefighting community, you know, what is fair and what is good, it should be for everyone.

Even Lewis and Clark recognized the Missouri was one the largest of channels in our country. I believe they said it was wider, cleaner, and more powerful. So for the record, clean water does start in Montana.

We need to have a serious discussion about how to do more with less.

I encourage us all to look at maybe a pilot program on a forest scale of, you know, that scale, and look at it and see if we can do longer-term contracts.

Are you aware that China produces more emissions than any other country on the planet?

I think the tribal pay is even worse.

So is there a plan that you know of, of what are we going to do?

I do believe that if that was changed, then you would see a lot more participation with the Good Neighbor authority because it really is a great tool for how we do our work.

I think it has been like 30, 35 years now.

It is pretty much a 'yes' and 'no.' It is your policy, madam?

You ever been to Montana?
