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

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

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?

The House of Representatives has been challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic and, more recently, with the assault on the Capitol on January 6.

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.

We look forward to hearing how you plan to implement these changes and how they will further improve GAO's work.

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

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

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

The Library of Congress is a treasure of the United States, and it is our duty to protect the valuable collections.

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?

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…

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.

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

Awesome. Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

I think the next piece for me that has been a focus has been the fact that we have all these different layers of people looking to harden our infrastructure against any future attacks, quite frankly, and the security piece.

Can I ask, so then you--it sounds like with--so what are you going to need from us to maintain that level of care of the force?

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.

The information you have released has been incredibly helpful, and it has been timely.

Are you aware of this report, the GAO report, and is that something that you can assure us...

I want to make sure that my constituents back home in southwest Washington and citizens across this Nation have these resources.

I am not afraid of losing my job but I am afraid that my country will fail. My vote to impeach our sitting president is not a fear-based decision. I am not choosing a side, I'm choosing truth. It's the only way to defeat fear.

With truth comes love and we could use that right now. My vote to impeach our sitting president is not a fear based decision. I am not choosing a side. I'm choosing truth. It's the only way to defeat fear.

I am a little frustrated that I have not--our offices--and I don't know if the majority has.

I think CRs are as detrimental as the next person.
