The Navy has had a strike fighter shortfall for a number of years.

I join my colleagues in a call for a 9/11-style bipartisan commission to look at the Trump/Russia ties.

We do know that Russia launched a massive cyberattack last year and influence campaign to undermine faith in the U.S. democracy.

I firmly believe that the most appropriate context for such an investigation is with an independent, bipartisan commission.

I would encourage this administration to do the same thing.

I do not believe that we should view this as a partisan issue.

What if these U.S. troops run into the Russians? What is our policy?

The longer the American people remain in the dark about Russian manipulations, the longer they will remain vulnerable to them.

At Vladimir Putin's orders, Russia's agents tried to swing last year's election in favor of President Trump.

I am hopeful that the fiscal year 2018 budget request will demonstrate our sustained commitment to addressing this shortfall.

I also join my colleague, who is a Republican from San Diego, as well as other colleagues here who are Democrats, in calling for a special prosecutor.

the Super Hornet is vital to addressing the Navy's strike fighter shortfall.

This committee has an important role to play.

I fully support giving our armed services the resources they need to execute their missions.

The fact that they had the nerve to interfere in our elections should make all of us pause.

The fiscal year 2018 budget should support the introduction of the Block III Super Hornet to the fleet.

The magnitude of the Navy's shortfall is so large that single-year solutions are not the ultimate answer.

I do believe sooner rather than later they will develop an ICBM that can strike Alaska, or Hawaii, or California.

I think it's a great idea for any region. Yes, I do.

Thank you, Mr. Chair and Ranking Member Cummings for calling this important hearing.

women were consistently less favorable than men on all aspects of workplace environment.

I think the mobile device of your NASA employees will be the weakest link in your defense system.

Earlier this year, Donald Trump asked Russia to hack an American citizen.

So my hope is that we don't have any more machines without paper ballots.

Can you explain how you hacked the machine and if there's any reason why we would want a machine with no paper ballots? Wouldn't we always want a backup in case something was hacked?
