The numbers are skyrocketing. Do you have enough revenue or resources to provide the services necessary?

Thank you, Mr. Lopez.

I look forward to hearing today from the seasoned investigators on the Review Commission about their impressions of the situation at Fort Hood.

Well, with all due respect, General, the Killeen sheriff, I believe, said that he presented a PowerPoint to the leadership at Fort Hood wanting to do more work together, and they received no response to that.

I must tell you, I am truly disappointed that that is the extent of what you have gleaned from the report.

The leadership at Fort Hood has changed. They have pulled out the entire team and replaced them.

This has been going on for quite some time at Fort Hood.

It was the leadership under a number of generals or colonels that, basically, had their eyes off the ball.

Your report has become a bible of sorts that I carry with me on my plane rides, and find that every time I read it, I learn something new and, unfortunately, something that dismays me even more.

I would like to ask unanimous consent that non-subcommittee members be allowed to participate and ask questions after all the subcommittee members have had the opportunity to ask their questions.

I will ensure we keep our foot firmly on the pedal until the Army turns itself around and our service members and their families are safe.

The Fort Hood report is required reading and continues to reveal new challenges and problems.

You know, for the longest time, Walter Jones was the only Republican that wanted to see us out of Afghanistan.

You have been, really, an important voice for us to evaluate how our money is being spent and how it has been spent poorly.

But I fear that all of that is going to come to an end.

All of the witnesses present testified that their companies believe MHPI leases and housing are subject to state and local laws related to housing and leases.

In the last 3 years, how many tenants have you had to relocate prior to their scheduled lease termination due to maintenance or habitability reasons?

Do each of you pay for damaged personal property when a unit becomes uninhabitable?

What percentage of your revenue is ascribed to overhead?

What percentage of your revenues from your participation in MHPI are ascribed to overhead, both at the corporate and installation levels?

How many 7-year histories of properties has your company provided to tenants, and how many tenants have refused a property after reviewing the 7-year history?

When you provide a 7-year history, is it presented in plain English so that they tenant can understand it?

What percentage of your company's overall MHPI housing units are currently unoccupied because of maintenance or habitability reasons?

What is the total amount of reduction for incentive fees at each installation/garrison for your company over the last 5 years?

How many employees does your company have working for your MHPI projects? How many for each garrison or installation where your company operates housing?
