"I appreciate what Senator Murkowski said. I think the LWCF fund ought to be reallocated."

"I would say if we could develop a champion, a retired Senator, a retired Congressman, a retired Vice President, who would go around the country and rally for the parks to endow the parks..."

"What you need is a champion. You know, we had a champion for parks, Teddy."

"It ought to be a priority to fund the maintenance of our parks."
