I am deeply concerned by the written testimony submitted by Dr. David Schnare for this hearing today.

If federal records have been intentionally deleted or destroyed, then individuals should be held accountable.

We can all agree that federal recordkeeping is important and requires some modifications as our modes of communication change.

There is a world of difference between deleting text messages and deleting a federal record and we need to be clear and careful in this matter.

If there are indeed legitimate issues with EPA record keeping or the processing of FOIA requests, then let us look into those issues and address them.

I do not believe it is productive to allow someone who shows such disregard for the facts to testify.

I think there's been a disconnect in that regard that has helped reduce the share of income going to labor.

I think we'd all rather see four percent growth and 400,000 new jobs per month.

Thank you Madam Chair Comstock and Chairman Loudermilk for holding this hearing today.

There is an increased likelihood of a collision with space debris at the altitudes at which the JPSS satellites fly.

Surely NOAA understands that the JPSS program represents a failure and an unsustainable model.
