Lizzie Fletcher: “Sometimes we have to start by fixing deeper foundational problems.”

Thank you very much, and thanks to Chairman Latta and Ranking Member Matsui for convening today's hearing.

I have asked for language to ensure the Corps' continued focus on completing the Buffalo Bayou and Tributaries Resiliency Study.

I am proud of and excited about the work that we have done together and the things that we have accomplished in the previous Water Resources Development Acts.

I hope my colleagues will join me in voting for the motion to recommit.
