Derek Kilmer: “I am a big believer in the notion of loving critics, you know, those who do not want to bash institutions but make them…”

I strongly believe that this is a key ideal we should be striving for in how we craft rules packages.

I was proud to introduce the BUDS Resolution along with Representative Young Kim, who, in an ideal world, would be listed as a lead sponsor as well.

These retreats will allow us to identify areas of mutual concern and agreement.

My hope is, regardless of which party holds the gavels, that that Subcommittee continues, because the work of institutional improvement needs to continue.
