Thank you, Chairman Wilson, and thank you to you and Ranking Member Phillips for calling this important hearing.
We stand ready to pass legislation to address the serious issues facing all Americans if our Republican colleagues will let us.
I fear that you have been revictimized by this hearing because this hearing is not going to provide that change.
I apologize for the manner, in which, you have been treated in this hearing, but I hope you understand they are not actually interested in having an answer from you.
