I think it is important.

I would ask that our fellow Congressman show appropriate decorum to an elected tribal official who has, at his own expense, come to testify before Congress to share his perspective.

During rollcall Vote No. 669 on H.R. 5894, I mistakenly recorded my vote as ``no'' when I should have voted ``aye.'' Stated against:

No one should miss out or be left behind--these lands should be accessible to all.

This bill would direct the United States Forest Service and Department of the Interior to conduct a comprehensive assessment of accessibility options.

America's public lands are for everyone, regardless of who you are and how you access them.

I appear before you today in support of the bipartisan Promoting Accessibility on Federal Lands Act, led by Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico and Congressman Juan Ciscomani of Arizona.

Every day is Veterans Day, and we appreciate your service to our great nation.

I am actually very excited to be talking about apprenticeships and trades education because I am a former tradesperson.

Right now, in New Mexico we have more jobs than people, and I think some of the discussion has really pointed to that.

I think that part of the challenge that we face is to figure out how to incentivize more of our young people to go into the specific areas that are matched with where our economy can grow.

So, one of the things that New Mexico has done--and I think this goes along with some of the comments that were made about other countries--is that we made college free for all.
