reprioritizes taxpayer money by moving a small amount of funds from the bureau of land management acquisition account and redirect them to the national park service maintenance backlog account. over the years, congress has sent billions of dollars to these accounts allowing the federal government to acquire roughly $640 million -- 640 million acres. today the federal government bones 28% of all the land of the united states, including about 40% of the land in my home state of arizona. this ownership and the subsequent management of the 640 million acres comes at a great expense to the american taxpayer and poses overwhelming challenges for land managing agencies. the deferred maintenance backlog for the national park service, and i have here a list of those, totals nearly $12 billion. the national mall alone is almost $800 million in deferred maintenance in the grand canyon national park. $350 million in deferred maintenance. the list goes on and on. given these challenges, it defies logic that we would continue to spend millions of dollars to acquire more land that we can't pay to maintain. so, i instead encourage us, $1.4 million o

national park service. we have the bureau of land management, the fish and wildlife service, the forest service, and we have the environmental protection agency, all very significant accounts. we also have a site in interior that many of my colleagues forget actually rests in interior, and this is the oversight for our budgets, for our native peoples, our american indians, alaska natives. we provide funding in this measure for essential indian health, education, and resource management programs through the bureau of indian affairs and the indian health service. and funding for cultural institutions, again, an area that people don't necessarily think of interior and our role here but we have budgets for the oversights for the smithsonian institution, the national gallery of art, the national endowments for the arts and humanities. so it's a pretty broad spectrum here. the interior appropriations bill provides $35.85 billion for fiscal year 2019. this is $600 million more than last year. i want to thank chairman shelby and vice chairman leahy. the increased allocation that we saw for the interior bill was really important as we assembled this bipartisan bill. this additional
