if DHS is then going to release people who have been proven to be a danger to society into the public, well, then that leaves more Americans to be victimized by, in some cases, very violent crimes.

To me, that's a major failure. Because if I were somebody whose family member was victimized by a crime, I would want to know: Well, wait a minute. You guys should have known.

So when that is not followed, what happens? Who is held accountable? Does anyone lose their job?

The problem, though, is, is if they're going and they're being convicted and then ICE knows that they're not here legally, and we know they're convicts, and yet they still get released into society.

That's a lot of families who have lost loved ones, and they can look at ICE and say: Look. Had you just done your job better, maybe my family member would be here today.

the fact that this system was hacked and we didn't even know about it for a long time, that is really, really troubling.

I think, going to have a chilling effect on people wanting to get involved if we don't get a handle on this.

their best bet to do the most damage would be to try to launch it over the country and explode it and create an EMP.

So given that the consequences are potentially very dire, but also given that, I think, as all the witnesses have said, there are certainly things we could do very easily, why haven't we done enough, in your opinion?

I think this is something that is a concern to, I know, the chairman and, certainly, to me.

I introduced the Fairness in Class Action Litigation Act.
