Remarks

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I yield myself three minutes.

It's my honor to bring the Fiscal Year 2014 Energy and Water bill before the membership of the House.

However, before I go through its highlights, I'd like to thank my ranking member, Congresswoman Kaptur, and all members for their participation in putting this bill together so quickly, and so responsibly.

I'd also like to recognize the hard work of Chairman Rogers and Ranking Member Lowey to bring this bill, and the several others before it, to the floor under an open rule.

The bill for Fiscal Year 2014 totals $30.426 billion, $2.9 billion below last year's levels, and more than $4 billion below the President's request.

The budget allocation we received this year made for some very difficult decisions, but in our bipartisan tradition we worked hard to incorporate priorities and perspectives from both sides of the aisle.
