Our security is as strong as our weakest link. Enhancements at rural airports strengthen security of the entire national airspace.

I appreciate that commitment.

I want to get your commitment to ensure that whether they're TSA or SPP, we can always maintain the level of security at these rural airports.

I want to thank you for your commitment also to continue to work on ways to reduce obstructions to litigation in Montana.

The endangered species is probably sawmills in Montana.

It is a top priority of mine to ensure that those who have served our country are able to effectively transition to civilian life and continue to apply the skills and the traits that are learned in the military so they can then benefit…

Agriculture is our number one industry in Montana, and I am saying this to another Bobcat here, Bobcat to Bobcat.

I want to thank you, Mr. Chairman, as well as Ranking Member Heinrich, for holding this hearing on Senate Bill 1577.

It is hard to get anybody to agree on any one topic.

If Senate Bill 1577 becomes law it will be the first Wild and Scenic designation in Montana in 40 years.

Ensuring veterans can get the best care possible, close to home and without delay is of the utmost importance.

And as I've taught my kids, you're better off if you don't swerve.
