I'm proud to have the support of local ranchers like Janie and Howard Van Winkle and farmers and ranchers like Bob and Gail Motivi and Darius Allen in the San Luis Valley. I'm also happy to have the support of the only two state legislators who themselves own a water right, Representative Mark Catlin and Montrose and Senator Cleve Simpson from the San Luis Valley. They know that in Congress I'm going to fight against any water export project. When it comes to the Colorado river compact, we need to make sure that we uphold that. (17:08–17:20)
