I want to thank you specifically for convening this hearing on our report less than a week after we issued it.

I think it is critically important that this work not stop at this point where we are just looking at what is happening ...

So I am going to give a legislator's response and then yield to the former Cabinet member.

We hope, as this hearing goes on, you will feel strongly enough about at least some of the recommendations we make here ...
