Rep. Costa Statement On President Obama's State of the Union Address

Statement

Congressman Jim Costa (D-Fresno) released the following statement on President Barack Obama's State of the Union address:

"The President's call for all Americans to work together to make the country's economic recovery our highest priority is something we can all agree on. Some of us in Congress have been saying that for the past two years!"
"The President's "Winning the Future" blueprint has outlined the many challenges that lie ahead -- reducing the deficit, reforming government to make it more efficient and effective, and investing in infrastructure, education and innovation. America must maintain its world-wide competitive edge in this arena."

"The key to the Valley's future is the health of the state's water infrastructure and ensuring an adequate and reliable supply of water remains my highest priority. It is the key to our economic recovery and the way to win the future for Valley residents. I join the Administration's call for shared responsibility with my Republican colleagues as we work together on the country's economic recovery.
