Lindsey Graham: “Today, I ask the Chair and Ranking Member of the Senate Energy and Water Appropriations Committee, Senators Domenici and…”

On the recordSeptember 29, 1998
Today, I ask the Chair and Ranking Member of the Senate Energy and Water Appropriations Committee, Senators Domenici and Reid, of your intentions for the future of the Kissimmee project. Senator Mack and I remain committed to forward progress on the Kissimmee River restoration. We would like to work with the committee to identify potential reprogramming opportunities within the Army Corps budget that might allow forward progress on this project which is so critical to Everglades restoration. We would also like to work with the committee during the fiscal year 2000 appropriations process to ensure that the Kissimmee River restoration is funded at appropriate levels.
