I am concerned that only $130 million of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) $8.1 billion total request is dedicated to Southwest Border activities.
We are a Nation of a rule of law. Therefore, we need to support an independent judiciary.
I do want to focus on the Southwest Border, because, Mr. Director, we're in a war there.
I want to thank you, Madam Chairman, because you have indeed been a partner in trying to make the very best efforts for NASA in all of its missions.

We appreciate Senator Hutchison's recognition of the fact that DOJ's roles and responsibilities are varied and critical to the security and safety of our homeland and the American people.
