Frank Lautenberg: “We always find ways to give assignments to the Coast Guard. First of all, your weakness is your skill. You're too good.”

I am deeply concerned that recent cuts to the IRS budget are jeopardizing its ability to carry out this vital mission.

I want to hear feelings of improvement, of moving forward.
