"Well, I haven't had an opportunity to talk or know the details of this or talk to the State Department, but I am sure that we'll be making a decision on that sort of thing."

"We're still providing the needed services, and we're doing it with fewer people."

"Well, they deserve a big 'thank you' from all of us."

"The Federal Government should perform those functions in an efficient, economical manner."
