Eliot Engel: “New York will require approximately $29 billion over 20 years to ensure continued delivery of safe public drinking…”

I introduced the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act several years ago as a response to what we saw in this room.

This legislation could go a long way toward putting Burma back on the path toward democracy.

I know Mr. Meeks very well and I know that he will do an excellent job--an excellent job--as chairman.

I particularly want to thank Chairman Engel for his leadership, as well as the whole committee, for making the Caesar Act a reality.
