I just want to quickly agree with Congressman Heck. I used to represent Joint Base Lewis-McChord. It is the worst traffic in the State of Washington. The base more than doubled over the course of 7 to 8 years. It is a significant quality of life issue for our men and women and their families who are serving on Joint Base Lewis- McChord, and I am sure this is a situation that is repeated around many bases across the country. So I strongly support his efforts to try and deal with this. This is something that directly impacts our troops and their families. I thank him for his effort. Mr. McKEON. Will the gentleman yield?
