So, in the interest of time, I'd actually like to maybe put these questions in the record.

I think all of that will be determined in the negotiations.

I understand CBO has produced more than 3,000 written cost estimates under your leadership, and that this is your 50th and perhaps last congressional hearing.

I appreciate the attention that the Navy is giving to our shipyards.

It is going to undermine our ability to commit to our strategy in the Asia Pacific, and it will hurt our sailors, marines, and their families.

The loss of these Cruisers without the replacement Destroyers erodes ballistic missile defense (BMD) capability in theatre.

Moving the Marines from Futenma is consistent with the wishes of the people of Okinawa.

Thank you, General. And on the total number of marines on Guam, the number I think briefed to Congress last year was 5,000, down from 8,000. Can you tell me how you got to the 5,000 and whether that number is now firm, or do you anticipate…

I believe this program is extremely important to coastal states.

I think the agency has done really good work in improving safety.

I am uncomfortable with taking 16 months before rules are issued.

Last year, the Administration created the largest marine-protected area in the world.

with 1 day before the funding expires for the Department of Homeland Security, I rise to urge the adoption of a clean funding bill. It seems we are on a path to ensure that, at least in the Senate, we are going to adopt a bill that funds…

I am concerned about the Air Force's commitment to the Asia-Pacific rebalance.

The Air Force can do more to capitalize on the talents of the National Guard and Reserve, particularly when it comes to cybersecurity.

Without assured access to fuel, you cannot fly your aircraft or power generators at forward-operating bases.

I am particularly concerned about the Pacific Command's vulnerability to cyber attack because, unlike perhaps some other places, PACOM and the Department of Defense's installations and bases throughout the State of Hawaii are basically on…

if we are going to develop a national Internet of Things plan that is in the context of a free market and the context of a democracy, how do we strike the right balance in terms of it being private sector-driven, which I think we all agree…

In order to develop a plan in an American-style democracy, it may be a couple of years before we are able to render one. And I feel like we do not have enough time for that.

are they only ahead in terms of having developed a plan on paper, or are they actually ahead of us in terms of developing and taking advantage of the Internet of Things?

the Keystone legislation is likely to move to the President's desk this week after the House takes it up, and he will veto it. The votes are not there to override a veto, either in the Senate or the House. Legislation has a natural…

I think we all recognize we do not want to be inundating consumers and others with notification of breaches if they are not significant enough, and it would become meaningless.

What would suffice as a strong enough standard that we would all feel comfortable preempting the 50 odd state laws that we would be looking at?

I do not want to create a scenario where I am getting e-mails two or three times a week and I do not know what to panic about and what to ignore.

I rise today to urge my colleagues to pass a clean Homeland Security funding bill for fiscal year 2015. This is an issue of national security, and we cannot allow politics to divert attention from our responsibility as Senators. The…
