Chairman Rob Bishop (R-UT) released the following statement in reaction to President Donald J. Trump’s first address to the joint session of Congress:

“President Trump’s commitment to growing our economy and reforming federal bureaucracy to empower people are welcome words.

From infrastructure and regulatory reform to outdated environmental statutes and bureaucratic mission creep, I look forward to working in partnership with this administration and our states on a better way forward for the country."
