Committee on Appropriations

Dear Chair Obey and Ranking Member Lewis:

I am requesting funding for the Bee County Sheriffs Department in fiscal year 2010.
The entity receiving funding for the project is the Bee County Sheriffs Department, 1511
E. Toledo, Beeville, TX 78102. The funding would be used to hire and equip additional
officers in this small, rural community increasingly impacted by border drug traffic. I
certify that neither I nor my spouse has any financial interest in this project.

Sincerely,
~.4.:_ ;rI~~
