Barbara Mikulski actually said...

I would like to thank Senator Mikulski for her leadership and her help in getting us the resources we need to rebuild the agency.

My problem has been that the EEOC has been leadership starved, revenue deficient, and expectations that they have been unable to fulfill.

See, I am observing a pattern here, which is not only with the EEOC, but a variety of agencies.
