It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the McClellan–Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System (referred to in this section as the System) is a critical component of the inland waterways system that supports regional manufacturing, agriculture, energy, and freight mobility;
(2) reliable operation of the System is essential to preventing supply chain disruptions and economic losses;
(3) the System has been operating for decades and faces a critical maintenance backlog; and
(4) to the maximum extent practicable, the Secretary should prioritize funding for the operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, and modernization of the System.
