I find troubling...either that witness was withholding information from this committee or had a shocking level of ignorance.
It is the duty of the executive branch to respond in a timely manner to Members of Congress.
U.S. Constitution does not extend privacy protection to foreign nationals seeking entry into the United States.

ISIS has an explicit strategy--they talk about it in English all the time--to polarize Western societies as part of their effort to create a clash of civilizations.

I am pleased to join you to discuss H.R. 3484, the Los Angeles Homeless Veterans Leasing Act of 2015 that I authored.
So as part of this settlement that the VA secretary entered into, basically the campus has to be veteran-centric.
As a veteran, it is a privilege to represent the West LA Medical Center, the largest VA in the Nation.
