Hayden, and i loved your response to that. Well, thank you. Does anybody else have a question . Do you have a question, sir . Thank you. Just a question about the Montgomery County Library System which is really important here. Since one out of three people here were born in another country, here in gaithersburg and a few others called the english conversation club, ive been with it for about ten years where we teach immigrants english, we help them learn the culture, help them, you know, get a drivers license, help many of them become citizens. And recently were talking about technology, i started broadcasting our meetings live on facebook live, and weve had thousands of people around the world watching the meetings from the Montgomery County library. Thank you. Gentleman in the back. I just wanted to say one of the best things about living in Montgomery County is the great Library System and the great Staff Members they have there. How with libraries offering an everexpanding variety
How much you want them to ensure that we can continue to get Library Services and please, when we put out a call that we need your support, please do so. We dont have money for pacs, we dont have a lot of money, we are not wealthy people. So we depend on what you call grassroots and that is normal people picking up the phone or emailing their member of congress or their senator or their governor and saying we want you to support libraries. The mayor, the governor, the United States Congress Needs to know that and respect that and make sure that that happens going forward. And that a takes hundreds and thousands of calls from people like you. I couldnt have said it better. What a great point. We have, i think, time for maybe a question or two. Does anybody in the audience have a question . If not, i will go on. Its not a question, but i wanted to thank you very much for your comment about dr. Carla hayden, and i loved your response to that. Well, thank you. Does anybody else have a ques

Soldiers thoughts on closing gitmo. I have no doubt that closing this jeopardizes the safety and security of the United States and our citizens abroad. If the success or the failure of the mission at gitmo is based on the number of attacks against the United States after 9 11, im confident everyone in this room would join me in judging the mission has been successful. Intelligence collection and National Security have been strengthened as a result of gitmo and america remains a safer place thanks to the men and women serving there. Coaching dangerous terrorists in a military prison and away from American Families is the way it should be done. To me, closing gitmo is simply not an option. Thank you, mr. Chairman. I yield the remaining part of my time. The chair the gentleman yields back. The gentleman from texas reserves. Mr. Thornberry im happy to yield to another speaker to even the time. Im happy to yield to the distinguished gentlelady from indiana, mrs. Walorski. The chair the gent
