I just feel like to not come to this hearing and have an answer for me that you have a viewpoint on this it really bothers me.

I certainly will be asking both of you about that and also making sure that we can drop the amount from the threshold from 100,000 to 20,000.

I feel very strongly about this.

I think that there is always room for improvement.

we have to get at it to make sure it is not a one-way street.

So what we need to do is make sure--you hit it right on.

This is something that we can help address here by making sure that the information sharing is improved.

If that information is not flowing down fully to State and local in the way it needs to, then we do need to address that.

There should be a mandate somewhere that the Federal authorities have to share that with us so that we can properly defend our community.

I think you are on the streets every day. The FBI does a great job, but they are not on the streets every day.

I just want to thank you for the extraordinary bravery of the Boston Police Department and all the law enforcement officers and first responders that were involved.

I think we can do something about this. We should.
