I do commend the gentleman from Missouri, Representative Carnahan, for valuing the historic and cultural resources which make his district unique and for seeking ways to interpret and share those resources more broadly. I spoke with him personally on the phone last night. He is in his district at the current time attending very important activities, but this legislation is just as important to him. Otherwise, he would be here speaking on this personally. If the study we are authorizing today should support such a move, we look forward to working with Representative Carnahan on legislation to make this area a unit of the National Park System. I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 1728.
