Political Quotes

On the recordOctober 23, 2013
This amendment reflects the good work of many Members from both sides of the aisle and, again, reflects a bipartisan process followed by Chairman Shuster in assembling this important legislation. It includes thoughtful language related to control of aquatic invasive species at the bipartisan request of several Members from the Great Lakes area and the west coast, language relating to promoting government efficiency and communicating potential risk of flooding, as well as several important requests for additional information related to the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund and how Congress can continue to address the backlog of unconstructed Corps projects. I support the amendment and reserve the balance of my time.
