House Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Nita M. Lowey (D-NY-17) today introduced new legislation to provide relief and recovery assistance for Americans affected by recent natural disasters.
The $17.2 billion emergency supplemental builds on legislation the House passed in January. It includes an additional $3 billion to address urgent needs following flooding in the Midwest and tornadoes in the South that have occurred while the House-passed bill has languished in the Senate.
Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies
This afternoon the Committee will receive testimony on the posture of the United States Army and the fiscal year 2020 budget request for the Army.
Our two witnesses are the Honorable Dr. Mark Esper, Secretary of the Army, and General Mark A. Milley, the Chief of Staff of the Army. We welcome you back before the Subcommittee and thank you for your service. General Milley, I’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your nomination to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
I know it is a very busy time at the IRS with less than a week left to the filing season, so I want to welcome Commissioner Rettig and thank him for taking the time to be with us this afternoon.
I know this is your first filing season as the IRS Commissioner and we are interested in hearing your observations and visions for the IRS.
