I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I appreciate the gentleman from New Mexico for raising this issue. As he has pointed out, the Department has the ability to utilize the incredible scientific resources of our national laboratories. I look forward to working with him on this important issue. As our Nation continues to face a tight fiscal situation, it is vital that DHS work to ensure that its Science and Technology Directorates make good use of our government's existing capabilities.
