Life. The internet has inspired new crimes with names like online enticement, and sextortion and has become a thriving marketplace for selling children for sex. Many children today have cell phones which function the same as computers. This is why its vital that we work even more closely with our nations schools to help educate them about the dangers on the internet and the real world. As part of our recent reauthorization, you gave us the authority to provide more resources to state and local educational agencies. We have started to use this new authority to expand our programs to protect more children.

Weve also been working to develop more agespecific, gradelevel appropriate online curriculum and related Educational Resources for teachers to download from our
Phone number advertised, called the National Center. We were able to track that phone number to three states in the span of less than three days. We passed that on to Law Enforcement. That girl was recovered during operation cross country. With respect to those children missing from foster care, there are current laws before congress now that we urge congress to pass. Right now, only two states have laws mandating the reporting of children missing from foster care. As has been pointed out, one in seven missing children are also being sexually exploited. 67 of those are coming from foster care children. No one is looking for these children. They cannot be found until they are looked for. So i want to first thank this committee for focusing your efforts and giving us the ability to work more closely with schools, with teachers, with communities. Especially those children with special needs. 1 in 68, according to the cdc, suffer from autism. These children go laundering 50 of the time. Th

In fact, it will grow the economy and provide us with those middle class jobs. I know, mr. Tonko, you have been at this for your entire career. As have i. To be here in congress at this moment when we had an opportunity, we missed it today. We missed the opportunity today to grow the American Economy and instead we kicked the can down the road.

Habul kibler believes you should be interested in the faith even though the group is based thousands of miles away. Its the idea of humanity. The whole world should rise, the united nations, usa because we are talking about thousands, hundreds of peoples lives. People are dying. Reporter islamic radicals have targeted for slaughter the izitis who they say are devil worshipers because izitis believe the devil repented of sin and was restored to an angel. The izitis are grateful for the American Intervention but believe the u. S. And iraq need a long range plan if it can end the genocide. We need protection.
