On the recordJune 5, 2013
I rise to invite the distinguished chairman of the committee and the ranking member to engage in a colloquy. As a Member that represents a large technology community in northern Virginia, I share Chairman Carter and Ranking Member Price's urgency for cultivating a robust cyber workforce, and I appreciate the committee's thoughtful report language identifying this as a Homeland Security priority, with specific actions for the Department to pursue so that they can lead by example. I look forward to working with them and their staffs on this vital initiative. With that, I ask unanimous consent that the remainder of our colloquy be entered into the Record at this point. I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman may not enter a colloquy into the Record.
