Priorities. The choices we make about how to invest and spend have an impact on American Families. We must make it easier for hardworking americans to own a home, send their kids to college, have a secure retirement. That is why it is so important that we invest in our american ports. That will provide funding and support they need is a high priority for me. It is supported by 100 members of the congressional caucus. We know that americans must invest in the ports to remain competitive, and prepare for the expansion of the panel mall panama can now. The budget we are considering today, does the opposite.
