Safety, security, cybersecurity, privacy, I mean, it is all wrapped into this new technology and we should be really leading in this space.

I think one of the places where the Deputy Secretary's office has a real opportunity is in making sure that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

It is one I have mentioned before in this Committee. That is the impact that this pandemic has had on the mental health and well-being of our Native families.

The federal government has a responsibility to support Native health systems.

I am so grateful to each of you and your organizations for the unbelievable time and effort that you have put toward helping Native communities fight this pandemic.

Now, the American Rescue Plan is a critical first step to getting families back on their feet.

I really would look forward to you reaching out to some of the advocate groups that are out there.

So this potential portal could help survivors of domestic violence as well address some of the concerns that they have?

Yes, but my frustration is that this is the same conversation we have already had.

I have to thank you for highlighting the need to prioritize our workers and families, particularly in the wake of COVID-19 and its impact on low-wage workers and workers of color.

I hope that my colleagues, we can all, along with the industry, address this issue.

We have to do more. We have a responsibility at the Federal level.

I cannot stress enough the money that we fought for, the $350 billion to our State and local governments----

Access to clean water is a fundamental right, and we must prioritize it for all communities.

Some of the CARES funds had very limited utility. For example, the Municipal Liquidity Program and the Main Street Lending Program were underused.
