This is a bipartisan Act that I worked with Senator Coons on.

I look forward to working with you on this issue.

I am very proud of your accomplishments in an industry that does not have many women.

Thank you for working to enact the Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act that we passed here in the Congress.

Members of this Committee have heard compelling testimony and received letters from industry that there is simply not enough time to fully engineer and certify.

I have talked about our growing economy in West Virginia and being led by our energy sector.
