Have you instructed the agents on the ground about which are the highest enforcement priorities versus the lowest?

I would like that answer before the end of the week, please.

So we will not keep our promise to these children and these young people?

Are you willing to keep America's promise to these young people and not share their information with ICE?

These young people are terrified. They are terrified.

I believe that this Committee has done a great job of conducting congressional investigations when we have found that there are Americans who are at risk of harm and violence.

I am troubled because if you are unaware of those requests, it suggests that there is not a sufficient priority for Puerto Rico in your agency.

What would we craft? What would that policy look like? And, why do we not go in reverse order and start with you, Professor Corlette.

I could not agree more, Senator Peters, and I know Senator Johnson feels the same way, which is that we need more transparency in the system.

I look forward to working with you to find ways to make sure this program is working for all Americans.

What do you believe will be the impact of the Trump Administration's proposed 30 percent budget cut to the EPA's Superfund program from $1 billion to $762 million?

I would urge that we follow up on this point. I think it is a very important and valid point that we should have an estimate of the costs, if our budget is actually going to be relevant to the task at hand.

I am very interested, as I am sure my colleagues are, to know what the impact to the States will be of this 30 percent cut.

I appreciate and agree wholeheartedly that there are so many issues that are presented to this Committee and to all of us as Senators, the vast majority, in fact, that are not even bipartisan or non-partisan, and it is critical that we…

It's important to value a free and independent press in order to allow them to do their job.

The difference between being hacked and not being hacked, is knowing you've been hacked.

I'm also concerned that the Federal Government does not have all the information it needs in these situations where there's been a breach.

Is there any requirement that a State notify the Federal Government when they suspect there's been a breach?

And in terms of the American public and voters in each of these states, can you tell me is there any requirement that the State notify its residents when the State suspects there may be a breach?

And do any of you have any thoughts about whether there should be such requirements, both in terms of states reporting to the Federal Government and also states reporting to their own residents and citizens about any breaches of their…

There are certain universal truths. There are certain things that, in spite of what might appear to be differences among men and women, certain things, and most of the things that we share that bind us, that we have in common.

If the workforce does not have the skills to perform those jobs, then those jobs will be left empty.
