Good afternoon. Thank you for recognizing me, Madam Chair. 

I am pleased we are considering the FY23 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Bill today.

Even though I would have done some things differently, this is a good bill. My chair, Ms. Wasserman Schultz, deserves credit for her great hard work and I am happy to work with her.

I hope we can agree on a framework, which must take into account the PACT Act that will be considered in the House soon.  We need an agreement to allow us to resolve our differences and finalize the FY23 bills in a timely manner.

Thank you. I yield back.
