Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to begin by thanking Chairwoman Kaptur and Ranking Member Simpson for their leadership on the Energy and Water Subcommittee.

These agencies are responsible for projects that protect the public and property from floods and hurricanes.

Madam Chair, thank you for bringing forward the fiscal year 2021 Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies appropriations bill today.
I also want to thank the Ranking Member, Mr. Simpson, for his leadership on this subcommittee.
As a result of your work, this bill addresses the priorities of Members on both sides of the aisle and does many good things for the American people.
