I want to begin by thanking Chairman Gowdy for calling today's very important hearing.

Inspectors general serve a critical role by providing an independent check on the executive branch.

I hereby move to subpoena TSA officials Huban Gowadia, Francine Kerner, and Steven Cohen to appear before this committee.

The work that you and your staff members do is more important now than ever.
