I think that is a critical relationship, particularly as it pertains to State law enforcement.
Catherine Cortez Masto
The Public Record
Catherine Cortez Masto is the junior United States senator from Nevada, having taken office on January 3, 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, she made history as the first Latina senator in U.S. history. Before her election to the Senate, Cortez Masto served as the Attorney General of Nevada from 2007 to 2015, where she focused on consumer protection and public safety issues. She has been an advocate for various policies, including healthcare access, immigration reform, and economic development in Nevada.
A lot of this is about voter confidence. We want voters to be confident that their votes count and that they have faith in the franchise.
I do understand generally the concern in particular with regard to 5G and our supply chains, that there is a need to have network security.
I also think we can also do automatic voter registration and still secure our elections and make sure everybody has access to vote.
I would add one other thing. When we passed voter ID in Missouri, we actually increased accessibility to the ballot.
Would you please provide us with a list of those states that have received those assessments?
I am just curious. How many actually are certified and how many vendors are not certified that are actually in our states and machines that we are using?
I think this bill is a critical step in the fight against Alzheimer's and Congress should pass it.
It is imperative that we as a country invest in a nationwide Alzheimer's public health response.
The battle against Alzheimer's is a battle we must win. If we do not, it will cripple our Nation.
As legislators, what should we be thinking about to verify that, when Americans are told that their data has been destroyed, that deletion can actually be confirmed?
We need to ensure our communities and our health systems are able to meet the needs of those living with Alzheimer's and their caregivers.
So by creating this idea that this is a public health crisis, we have an infrastructure that now we can all tap into
I am cosponsoring bipartisan legislation introduced by members of this Committee--Chairman Collins, of course, and Senator Cortez Masto--to tackle these challenges.
It is my hope that the voices of our witnesses here today--and the voices of those of you in this room today--will help us get this bill to the President's desk.
As my father would say, we must pull ourselves up by the bootstraps. We must do our duty to the American people and fund and fight this battle, and we will win.
We must make the public and health care professionals aware of the early signs of Alzheimer's disease.
There needs to be a greater nationwide public health effort and infrastructure in order to increase early detection and diagnosis.
Legislation like the BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer's Act will help do that.
I'm a very big fan of sharing data between agencies, between law enforcement, but in an appropriate framework.
The idea that this act that we are talking about, the BOLD Act, really sets the tone that this is a public health crisis.
So, clearly, the concern that you have seen from many of my colleagues with respect to the Community Reinvestment Act and ensuring there is no discrimination in lending.
