Dear Chairman Obey and Jerry Lewis,

I am requesting funding for the Regional Homeland Security Training Center Initiative in Fiscal
Year 2010. The entity to receive funding for this project is Rio Hondo College located at 3600
Workman Mill Road, Whittier, CA 90601. Funding will be used to purchase equipment, outdoor
lighting and a portable unit for training at night to meet the rising demands for training from LA
County first responders. I certify that neither I nor my spouse has any financial interest in this
project.

Sincerely,

S
