OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR TIM JOHNSON
Senator JOHNSON. Good morning. I welcome everyone to today's
hearing to discuss the President's fiscal year 2014 budget request
for Military Construction (MILCON) and Family Housing for the
Departments of the Army and the Air Force.
We will have two panels of witnesses today. The first panel rep-
resenting the Army includes Ms. Katherine Hammack, Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Installations. She is accompanied by
Lieutenant General Michael Ferriter, Assistant Chief of Staff for
Installations Management; Brigadier General Walter Fountain,
Deputy Director of the Army National Guard; and Mr. Addison
Davis, Army Reserve Command Executive Officer.
We welcome you all to this hearing, and we look forward to your
testimony. The Senate has a series of votes this morning, scheduled
to begin at 10:30. I do not want to inconvenience our witnesses, so
I suggest that we dispense with opening statements and ask our
witnesses to limit their opening remarks, so that we can get di-
rectly to questions.
