Last week I introduced the bipartisan Cyber Ready Workforce Act with Senator Blackburn.

Thank you all very much.

I think one of the challenges small businesses and small government entities have is a dearth of expertise or staff on board to really enact this kind of visibility or, provide the programs to let them see their whole network and what is…

Nothing is more tragic than inefficiency and misdirected resources.

International terrorists and homegrown violent extremists (HVE) continue to pose a great threat to our homeland security.

I am grateful to all of your families.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, for that courtesy and to you and the Ranking Member for this hearing.

How will you ensure that the Office of Intelligence and Analysis has sufficient personnel and resources to assess and address all of the various terrorist threats to the homeland?

I really would look forward to working on this with you, because I think it is a really urgent issue for the American people.

If we cannot modernize our legacy IT, it is a customer service issue, to be clear. It is a national security issue as well.

I appreciate that, and I want to follow up a little bit on the issue of the Technology Modernization Fund.

I want to express my appreciation to you and your staff for working with me on my bipartisan bill with Senator Braun.
