the coast guard has, unfortunately, again, we have underfunded the coast. so congress is at fault for many of these things. maritime safety and the lack of initiative on the coast guard in terms of adopting new 21st century technologies to better perform their mission and make the sea lane safer and better understand what's going on in the oceans around us. so maybe we'll get some at this to name the blue tech certainty after mr. garamendi, but not until he's long gone so he's not in a hurry for that. anyway, i want to congratulate him and others who have been involved and thank chairman shuster for moving this legislation. with that i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields. the gentleman from california. mr. garamendi: i reserve my remaining time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentleman from california, mr. hunter. mr. hunter: mr. speaker, i reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. mr. garamendi: i yield four minutes to the honorable lady from the state of oregon, ms. bonamic
