Mexico has truly fallen to these cartels. When I tell you they're a parallel government, you are truly looking at a narco-state.

I appreciate that. In your testimony you mentioned public-private partnerships as potential incentives to push individuals, educators, employers, and other stakeholders to help strengthen the cybersecurity talent pipeline.

We are also excited about the forthcoming work force strategy from the Office of the National Cyber Director, and appreciate the focus the subcommittee is giving to this very important issue.

We commend the Biden administration for its work on the 2023 National Cybersecurity Strategy, particularly the Strategy's focus on enhancing the cybersecurity work force.

I encourage CISA to leverage the innovative initiatives of the private sector to grow the national cyber workforce at all levels via both traditional and non-traditional pathways.

I have said it before and I will reemphasize my belief that we need not only enough people but the right people with the right skills, in the right jobs to meet the growing cyber threat.

I look forward to addressing this challenge in a bipartisan manner with my colleagues across the aisle.

It is clear that the shortage of talent and burnout are issues that both the public and private sector face.

I've said it before and I will reemphasize my belief that we not only--we need not only enough people but the right people with the right skills in the right jobs to meet the growing cyber threat.

Thank you all for joining us today for a discussion of my biggest priority as Chairman of the subcommittee, addressing the cybersecurity work force shortage.

Thank you, Chairman Garbarino, Ranking Member Swalwell, and Members of the subcommittee, for your dedication to growing our Nation's cybersecurity talent pipeline.

I look forward to working with the Members of this committee to ensure we have the legislation and resources necessary to implement it.

We know that there is no single program that will solve this problem overnight, but if we build cybersecurity education into our K-12 curriculum, expand opportunities for cybersecurity training--whether in the form of certifications…

Instead of following the lead of the Appropriations Committee in cutting back support for the development of the cyber workforce, we must continue to look for innovative ways to bring more people into the talent pipeline.

As we move through the appropriations process, I will fight to restore funding for this important program, and I hope the bipartisan membership of this committee will support me in this effort.

I would like to know how that cost-benefit analysis could differ from the other proposal dealing with the short sales, because I would think if it is good for one, it is good for the other.

I would think that copycatting and herd behavior would be consistent with both, and I don't think it is a very large position under the new 10B-1 proposal that is being considered.

Over and over and over today, all I have heard Members do is say that you are out of touch.

It is to listen to America, not the world.

The big arm of government, which the SEC has, is unprofessional, and I think could care less about the capital formation.

We believe that what the SEC is doing is destroying capital formation.

When you limit rent increases, when you limit deductions that can be taken from capital investments into upgrading these apartments, you see landlords just they walk away.

I hope if anything does come forward where Fannie and Freddie would waive those insurance requirements, I would hope you would object to it.

I don't think it would be a sound proposal.

According to the latest statistics, New York has the lowest percentage of homeowners in the nation, under 55 percent.
