Bob Menendez Jr.: “I hope what the Congress did in this omnibus is going to help us focus a significant part of that money towards that…”

Thank you for convening today's hearing on port cybersecurity and for allowing me to waive on.

We have talked a lot in our Cybersecurity Subcommittee, this Congress, about how to streamline reporting requirements to make sure they are effective.

As Members of Congress, we have a legal right to conduct oversight at any DHS facility without prior notice, as we have already done twice this year.

I have been a strong proponent of the FAA making this rulemaking a priority.
