Recognized for his questions. Okay. Thank you. Id like to welcome my fellow e coloradans to washington, d. C. , gentlemen, thank you for your testimony, all of you, thank you for your testimony today. T part of this is i feel like, you know, were in the early stages of litigation, and i, the chairman, i think, maybe a frustrated litigator wanting to figure out who was negligent, who wasnt negligent, whos responsible for this, what happened. Appreciate the fact that the epa got to the department of health in colorado quickly, who got to durango, quickly. To share this. There apparently was some breakdown in communication getting to the Navajo Nation. A court is going to figure out o exactly what happened, when it happened, should it have happened, dr. Williamson, but id like to ask some other questions, because i think dr. A benn, you suggested some things that the epa should consider inn the short term and in the long term, one was help you with some monitoring devices to keep an eye o
Mr. Trump thank you so much. I did not expect that. They said, would you come over and speak. I got here. Possibled, would it be to come and say a few words . An endorsement from your group with so many veterans, hundreds of thousands, i appreciate that. I did not expect that. I did not expect it. I did not ask for it. I will say this.

~ ~ demonstrate there is a local need. To go through and be scrutinized around some of those comparisons with Small Businesses and come out the backside with something that really has a starting point of being wanted by the local community. If you look at where formula retail wants to go, it does not go into a lot of the communities which is the greatest need for jobs or services or retail diversity.
