Eddie Bernice Johnson: “Thank you very much, Chairman LoBiondo and Ranking Member Larsen, for having this fourth hearing in a series of meetings…”

Thank you, Chairman DeFazio, and Ranking Member Graves, for holding today's hearing on implementation of the IIJA.

Written statement by Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson, Chairwoman, Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, U.S. House of Representatives.

I don't agree that the blame game of Republicans or the prior Administration holds any significance to where we are.

Thank you to everyone for joining us today to discuss a topic with enormous implications for the future of our planet.
