How is everybody doing . Really appreciate the opportunity. Thank you fran for the kind introduction. Great to see you and also want to thank the council on foreign releases for the opportunity to be with you today and have an important discussion on the state of Border Security and immigration concerns, nationalry but also hopefully fran well have the opportunity to have conversation and dialogue on some of the other Homeland Security priorities and with the members here.
