Steven C. LaTourette: “I think it is disgusting, I think it is awful.”

I give President Obama, you and your Department very high marks for finally treating the Great Lakes as an entire ecosystem.

I was struck by the $7 million and 6,800 jobs, and you know, one of the satisfactions is the correlation of the dollars spent and jobs created.

My difficulty, however, is that your leadership in both Houses completely abdicated their responsibility to govern this country when it came to the Nation's fiscal health.

I think we need people on the ground with money to transform the communities.
