Congratulations to the Government Publishing Office for achieving its 160th year in operation. That is amazing.

So was your office asked to modify positioning of any perimeter barricades, and if so, did you find the request consistent with the direction given ahead of previously planned protests?

You guys are in charge, though, of the security on the House floor, or are you just there to make sure that we take our coats off when we are on camera?

Workplace wellness programs have evolved a lot in recent years.

The U.S. Capitol police union issued an overwhelming no-confidence vote for the force's top leaders, including acting Chief Yogananda Pittman.

I do like having our own independent budget analysis separate from the executive branch, and even from private entities.

Awesome. Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

I am frustrated that I am not hearing, 'This is how we are fixing that right now. This is what we are doing.'

And you have mentioned working in the cloud--and I will make this quick--but that is part of what your increase is for, for nonpersonnel costs that include improving your ability to detect cyber threats and continue to shift staff to…

Do you still believe this is an issue? Is there something that we need to do to help speed that process up to ensure CBO is getting the information it needs in a timely manner?

I mean the U.S. Capitol and the seat of our democracy.

Are you aware of any discussion by the actual Board members regarding the intelligence showing the possible disturbance on the 6th, like in a more--like the Board itself?

January 6 should serve as a wakeup call that the Capitol Police must make major changes in the leadership organizations and operations to refocus the mission.

So, just in talking with different officers in and around the Capitol complex, I know there are some whom I have known for a while--I have been here for about 10 years, and I was a staffer before that.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And welcome, back Mrs. Grundmann. It is a pleasure to have you.

Congratulations on the Government Accountability Office's 100th year. That is remarkable.

I wanted to actually start with--I mean, everything you talked--everything that you both just shared, I have so many more questions, but let me start with talking about our Capitol Police officers.

Would it be beneficial for the House to explore working with your agency to have OCWR lead the required trainings?

It is going to be important to balance the need of both repairing the damages made from the riot with preserving some marks from that day to mark the historical reminder of the riot.

GAO has an incredibly vital role in Congress' oversight of Federal spending.

The assault on the Capitol will forever be a painful reminder that democracy and the rule of law are not guaranteed to us.

You know, this past year with COVID-19 pandemic and the Capitol 6th riot has placed a great strain on our Capitol Hill community.

And one of the things I think would be helpful in retaining--and that was another part of the question--retaining employees is for I think a change in the culture between the leadership and the frontline officers.

So you feel like you have the confidence of most of your officers? I realize you can never make everybody happy. Do you feel like that is an accurate assessment?

We get to work in this place, the people's House. It is the most amazing thing ever.
