I want to thank you, Madam Under Secretary Lord, very much because I know that you have been working 24/7 at this, and we all greatly appreciate that.
I encourage my colleagues in Congress, from both sides of the aisle, to come together today and offer positive solutions.
We want to solve this problem and that is why we are delighted that you all are here before us today.
Can you think of an instance when you've actually picked up a problem, and they've corrected it?
