"We truly envision ourselves as the 9-1-1 force that you--that the American public, the American Congress, the taxpayer, they expect us to be most ready when everybody else is least ready."

"We feel at risk now for modernization and sustainment."

"When you look around, and you start to get involved and give back, and you see people struggling..."

"Even if you allow for flexibility, it would seem that readiness is always going to be somewhat at risk in a capped environment."
