Good afternoon. Today the subcommittee is pleased to be joined by this key panel of Department of the Interior leaders: Director Tracy Stone-Manning with the Bureau of Land Management, Director Martha Williams with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Director Chuck Sams with the National Park Service.

Remarks

The committee will come to order.

Madam Secretary, thank you for being here today. And thank you for our conversation last week in advance of this hearing. I look forward to our discussion on several important issues facing the Department of the Interior.

While I don't agree with all of your decisions or the Administration's policies, I am glad that we have been able to work together on many bipartisan issues, like working to meet our treaty and trust obligations with American Indians and Alaska Natives and implementation of the Great American Outdoors Act.

The hearing will come to order.

Good afternoon and welcome back, for the second time today, to discuss the President's budget proposal for FY 2024.

Earlier this morning, Secretary Haaland with the Interior Department joined us and now we are pleased to welcome Administrator Regan from the Environmental Protection Agency. Thank you for being here today, Administrator Regan.

As you know, I previously served as Chairman of this subcommittee, and I'm very excited to be back in this role again.

Good morning and thank you to Chief Moore for joining us here on Capitol Hill to discuss the Forest Service's fiscal year 2024 budget request.

I am pleased to return as Chairman of the Interior Subcommittee to have the opportunity to address the critical issues and needs of the U.S. Forest Service. As a Western Member of Congress, fire is far too familiar to the communities in my home state of Idaho and across the West.

I genuinely enjoy the Forest Service employees in our region and value their important work.
