Imposition of federal requirements, though perhaps well intentioned, could make things worse rather than better.

I am opposed to long lines and people waiting an inordinate amount of time.

I do have concerns about one remaining section of the bill though and will offer an amendment to strike it.

The Election Assistance Commission has fulfilled its purpose and should be eliminated.

I have called for the elimination of this agency as I believe it has outlived its usefulness.

Does early voting increase turnout, or does it just spread it around?

This committee has never had an oversight hearing on the EAC, never.

I oppose this legislation and intend to vote no. The states are perfectly capable of developing disaster contingency plans without federal compulsion or assistance.

I support this legislation to more accurately reflect the modern mission and structure of the Government Printing Office.

I want to talk about the long line problem, and we often hear about long lines are the result of some kind of a real plan.

I wish we could have a real hearing with regard to the need for the EAC.

We do have with us today two very well qualified nominees before us.
