John Hoeven: “Thanks for being here today, thanks for coming by and visiting with me yesterday. I appreciate it very much.”

North Dakota’s farmers and ranchers know their land and water better than anyone, and their stewardship of these resources is second to none.

At the same time, we continue working to ensure North Dakota communities have the federal support they need before, during and after disasters.

Today’s event was an opportunity to showcase the exciting and innovative work being done by the Grand Forks Air Force Base, GrandSKY, UND and their partners.

We appreciate Acting Regional Administrator Fox and her team being in North Dakota, as well as her ongoing efforts with us to advance $75 million in key infrastructure projects for the Bismarck area and communities across our state.
