Again, thank you very much. And with that, the hearing is adjourned.

I would really encourage--you know, as we visit with families that have gone through this, that seems to be kind of a common denominator in the sense of the transition from DOD where the formularies are different.

Diplomacy is always more effective when backed by the credible threat of force, though. Correct?

I would rather have a good problem, and that is the need for more money to see to it our veterans are being helped, than make excuses and tell a veteran who risked his life for us that we just cannot help him.

GSA's 2016 budget request includes $182 million for the judiciary's top construction priority, a new courthouse in Nashville.

I want to thank all of the people that participated in preparing the hearing today.

I begin today by thanking Congress for the funding the judiciary received in the 'Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015.'

this week we will debate the budget. The key part is the military budget, one part of our government where the strategy and threats must drive the budget, not vice versa. The greatest threat to our national security is a nuclear-armed…

I do not believe this rule will change that fact, and I agree that agricultural producers need to feel confident that is the case.

The Middle East is a place of many dangerous and complex questions, and the answer in whole or in part to virtually every one of those questions is Iran.

I hope that my testimony today provides you with some insight into the fiscal year 2016 funding needs of the Federal courts.

I appreciate that. I was interested in the question that Senator Lankford asked about reducing recidivism and things, evidence-based.

If there are no further questions, the hearing record will remain open until Tuesday, March 31, at noon.

I think the reality is they do not know the answer to those questions themselves, which is a real problem.

I would say it's problematic for Russia to be resupplying its forces in Syria by flying through Iraq.
