Resolution 34 which disapproves of the rules of the federal Communications Commission relating to privacy of customer of broadband and other telecommunication services.

We did recommend a number of changes to the way the program operates that could be implemented by the administration or the fisa court. The government is continuing to work on some others. I think those are the appropriates way to handle it. Thank you to all of you, thanks. Senator blumenthal . Thank you, mr. Chairman. Welcome to this very important and helpful panel.
