Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the fact that we share a common concern about our election security and an interest in using the best technology to protect that security. The intent here is to make sure that we are spending congressional dollars wisely as there are these grants being awarded. The amendment was devised, after hearing from interested parties, that there was not sufficient expertise on the three existing committees. And I would suggest that if the dangers, which the word the gentleman has suggested, were to come to pass, that that would be an excellent opportunity for congressional oversight. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
