As discussed yesterday on the Allen-Raskin amendment, I support the work of the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Office. They perform tireless work to track, locate, and recover our fallen heroes, and I thank them for their continued efforts. That is why the base bill already includes $10 million above the budget request. I supported the Allen-Raskin amendment yesterday, which provides an additional $10 million above the request. This amendment provides $10 million, which will support continued efforts to return our fallen heroes home where they belong. Mr. Chair, I support the amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
