I thank the gentleman for yielding. Let me just quickly reply to what I think the big difference is between the two sides. We just heard an eloquent argument about the financial impact to families if a police officer loses his job, that…

Let's assume two kids go out at night to the school dance. When the Black mother is waiting by the phone and the phone rings and the child says, ``Well, there was a problem,'' and both kids say, ``We see police lights. The police are on…

I have introduced H.R. 7128, the Air Travel Public Health Emergency Act, to explicitly confirm FAA's authority.

I have also written to the Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, as recommended by FAA.

Any proposed temperature check protocols must be designed to guard against the potential discrimination of travelers.

Any Federal temperature check program must undergo the 'notice and comment' regulatory process to ensure the proper roll-out of temperature checks at our Nation's airports.

I find this news alarming given that there is an absence of evidence that that such health screenings are effective especially since people can spread COVID-19 asymptomatically.

I am particularly concerned about DHS collecting, using, and safeguarding the sensitive health information of the traveling public, airport workers, and airline crew members.

Failure to keep these employees safe has severe negative implications for not only the workers and the aviation sector but also risks further spread of the virus.

The American people and the traveling public deserve better.

I have advocated tirelessly on behalf of TSA's front-line work force and demanded that they be issued appropriate protective equipment--like gloves and masks--to do their important work.

We need to believe in the intelligence that we are getting.

We have a responsibility to act whether we like it--don't like the information.

I will be interested in knowing if the fiscal year 2021 budget request from CISA is sufficient.

I commend my colleague, Congressman Jim Langevin, for his work on the Cyberspace Solarium Commission.

We want to make sure we make the right investments today.

It is not the time to complain about it, but we need to have that figured out.

I want to debunk the myth that the Federal agencies can do more with less.

As Members of Congress, we must have the information necessary to understand the threat and ensure you have budget and resources you need to defend against sophisticated cyber threats.

We cannot afford to continue to defer investments in R&D, and I will work hard to restore funding.

I don't understand how a cut of that magnitude makes communities trying to defend themselves against ransomware attacks... any more secure.

You can be certain that members of this committee will not allow CFATS to expire.

My suggestion would be sometimes you don't take no for an answer.

I support eliminating waste and increasing efficiency, but the fact is that with more you can do more.

You can be certain the Members of this committee will not allow CFATS to expire.
