Morning, everyone. The committee will come to order. Were here to examine the deferred maintenance needs of the public Land Management agencies. This is a topic i care about. I know each of you certainly, the folks on this committee, have expressed concern. Not just coming into this hearing today, but, really, over the years. When we consider deferred maintenance, we most commonly think of the 12 billion maintenance backlog accrued by the National Park service. We consider that here in the committee at great length and it rightfully continues to attract a great deal of national attention. But somehow and sometimes overlooked in this conversation are the deferred maintenance needs of the other federal Land Management agencies, including the Forest Service, the bureau of Land Management and fish and Wildlife Service. Combined with the park service, these four agencies face a deferred maintenance backlog totalling 19. 4 billion. Thats worthy of repeating. Within these four agencies that g

25,000 for my sons to go to one school. A school, snow school, that theyve never set foot in for any reason at all. If they were vouchered theyd only be paid once. If it was a scholarship, wed only be paid once. The reason why were in the situation that were in is were trying to keep the other school open so that the grown people can keep their jobs.
