Derek Kilmer: “This retreat would provide a rare opportunity to engage with one another outside of the pressures of Washington, D.C.”

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

My gratitude to Chairwoman Bice and to you, Mr. Chairman, and to Ranking Member Morelle, is that you are loving critics of the institution, and that matters.

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

I am hoping to leave my campsite better than I found it.
