Frank Lautenberg: “Whose fault is it, Professor?”

I am honored to serve as chairman of this subcommittee, which has jurisdiction over crucial Federal programs that support our economy.

Both agencies were crucial in helping New Jersey respond to and recover from Superstorm Sandy, and Congress must support them so that we are better prepared for future storms.

We must continue to be thorough in this investigation and analysis to ensure that this risk is eliminated.
