I say thank you to Senator Ernst. As I listened to Senator Ernst, I was struck by the fact that here to my right I have Lieutenant Colonel Ernst, who proudly served in the Iowa Army National Guard, and to my left I have Lieutenant Colonel Dan Sullivan, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, the Senator from Alaska. So it is really an honor to be here between veterans who are speaking on behalf of our veterans about what is going on here in Washington and how broken it is. It is my honor now to introduce Senator Mike Rounds. Mike was the Governor of South Dakota. So he had the Guard reporting to him as the Governor. Montana and South Dakota share a fence line, as we say, Senator Rounds. So my good friend and my neighbor from South Dakota, Senator Rounds, thanks for joining us.
