I know there is a way for us to prevent that.

I don't understand why you can't get this done.

I have heard this for the last 5 years, you know.

$96 million for Department of Defense prostate cancer research and TBI/PTSD research.

I just hope that next year you won't ask for another $1 billion again and another $1 billion with $4.6 billion.

I have supported consistently funding for PTSD.

I also want to emphasize my support, as well, for the National Guard ChalleNGe Program.

I did not know how prone Puerto Rico was to earthquakes until I woke up and found out what had happened there.

I would encourage--I know that this is the next year's fiscal budget, but I am hoping that the Defense Approps can look at the opportunities for partnering with the civilian government and making a difference in the lives of civilians.

I would like and hope that I could get that focused on in this coming appropriations in terms of the impact it has on military women.

I think would be particularly helpful to our remaining troops and to the safety and security of the Afghan people.
