He and I have recently submitted a letter to Acting Chairwoman Ohlhausen seeking an investigation into the deceptive and fraudulent practices...
You would all agree, I assume, that government does have a role to play in protecting safety?
I think the military certainly has experimented and done a lot in teleoperation with UAVs and drones and all, and they work, and they are safe.
Nobody is for overregulation or overinvolvement by government, but sometimes standards are necessary.
I want to avoid creating another generation of cars that may be unsafe at any speed.
The Internet was the result of a partnership, a continuing partnership over many decades of private industry, academia, and the government.
I think a big part of that is going to be the adoption of it and the trust, more so than the technology itself.
So you would view teleoperation as having a role in the future of your vehicles?
I think there is a common thing that says technology is overrated in the near term and underrated in the long term.
So that something as simple as AV technology, and I know, Mr. Mansuetti, you produce it, so you would agree, can help save lives.
I think it's so tremendously important that we have all hands on deck in dealing with this threat.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has warned that social media has been instrumental to the growth of the alt-right movement.
The Internet is a potential monster when it comes to extremists and terrorism.
I have been unhappy with some of the laggard and lacking action on the part of the Department of Education.
Thank you for spending the extra time with us and being so forthcoming in your responses.
I was appalled and stunned and surprised and grateful that this veteran is still alive.
I would also like a commitment that the VA protocol and practices will be reviewed so that, in fact, this incident can be a teaching moment.
