Thank you both for your time that you've taken to prepare and for your presence here this afternoon.

I think we would very much appreciate seeing that information.

Unless we set up systems to empower and protect children-athletes, we are going to see this play out again and again.

I would urge you to do that.

Congress must be resolved not to fail these women the way so many officials have failed them in the past.

And do you have reports that show that they have not been effective? Can you share that with the committee why the 21st Learning Grants you believe are not effective?

I joined with Senator Joni Ernst on a resolution to establish a Senate special committee to provide an independent and comprehensive inquiry into what has been called the worst sex abuse scandal in the history of sports.

I believe strongly that the Senate has a responsibility to investigate the allegations of abuse brought forward by these athletes and ANY other misconduct on the part of USOC and the national governing bodies.

How should we tell students in New Hampshire that they are going to be able to afford college and that they are going to be able to go to good schools?

I share my colleagues, and I think all Americans, extraordinary distress and outrage at the lack of integrity and proper oversight by the U.S. Olympic Committee and by Michigan State University.

We have restarted the Senate NATO Observer Group to try and continue to support efforts in that NATO is undertaking.

That is a commitment you made to this committee, and I appreciate you following through on that.

there is no military solution, there is only a political solution there.

I sharply question the systemic cuts proposed in the fiscal year 2019 budget to Earth Science. The stakes are too high.

If this Nation is to make any progress in mitigating the harmful effects of climate change, we need science agencies, such as NASA, to provide factual and reliable information on how our world is changing.

I'm so disappointed by the repeated request to eliminate NASA Education programs.

Last year, we rejected the proposal to terminate NASA education, and we will do it again this year.

I worry that increasing costs and delay wind up with us stalled at the moon indefinitely.
