Member Day Hearing
Opening Statement
March 23, 2023
I want to thank all of you for coming to today’s hearing to receive testimony from our colleagues.
I look forward to hearing more about the projects and programs in the Agriculture Appropriations bill that are important to each of your districts and to communities across the country.
Your input will be critical as we work to fund the agencies under this Subcommittee’s jurisdiction. I look forward to working with Ranking Member Bishop to accommodate these priorities as best we can as the fiscal year 2024 appropriations process moves forward.
Thank you again to each of our colleagues who have taken time out of your busy schedules to speak with us today and bring issues important to your community to our attention.
Ranking Member Bishop, I yield to you for any opening remarks you’d like to make.
