Canada had been trying to get this project done for over 3 years.

U.S. Congressman Sam Johnson (R-TX), Chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means Subcommittee on Social Security, today announced a hearing on combatting disability waste, fraud and abuse.

I look forward to being briefed by your staff and holding a future hearing on this.

We visited a Wal-Mart down in Texas that had disability workers as part of their program.

I appreciate you all being here.

Thank you, sir. Keep up the good work.

Waste, fraud, and abuse in the disability insurance program cheat honest, hardworking American taxpayers.

John Edwards has a life-threatening heart condition and got a delay in his criminal corruption trial until at least late March.

This new law encourages members of the U.S. military--who are the best trained professionals in the world--to pursue an education in our state, which will be an economic boost, but most importantly, it's yet another means for us to thank…

While we are not going to solve this controversy today, I am holding this hearing at the request of Congressman Jack Kingston.

First of all, if they are not getting information timely, I think that is in many cases the same thing as not getting information. Time is of the essence.

I appreciate that very much. Picking up on the information flow issue, Mr. Chairman, does the whole Commission not vote on a budget or budget issues?

Wouldn't it be reasonable for any budget matter information requested by a Commissioner when they are voting on the budget for that Commissioner to be able to get it, which apparently he or she can't?

We had better make the time for this.

That strikes me in politics as a classic non-apology apology.

My guess is these women don't want to have a conversation with you, for obvious reasons.

Let me ask the other four Commissioners, without naming names of staff, do you know of such instances?

What are you going to do about those specific instances?
