Dashcam ra dashcamera evidence. We have not. In colorado the dashcameras are used routinely by the Colorado State patrol. It is left up to the individual officers when they want to use individual cameras. From a prosecutors point of view this hasnt been a difficult tool to employ . No the with respect to dash cameras, senator. The complexity is logarithms when i understand. Mr. Henderson the only reason were probably having this hearing is because of these private videos that have shocked everybody. You agree with that . I do. In those cases, were glad we have video evidence. I mean youve got the North Charleston case thats in litigation so ill be careful of what i say. But in that case only god knows what the story would have been. Youre absolutely right. Its these private videos that have really motivated the public debate. As i said earlier you deserve great credit for convening this conversation. On balance, if you could get the right protocols to protect privacy and make sure the
Whats even more important, the people that they serve are suffering and weve got to have a big bold path forward to fix this. With that i yield back to the chair. Thank you. Mr. Kauffman, youre recognized. We get scope of practice questions here in the congress relative to the veterans administration. I think a lot of these issues have been resolved down at the state level before state legislatures and ive been on both sides of it as a state legislature where i think they are Better Qualified at the state level to make those decisions. They can have hearings and they know that the docs providers within their communities. I guess my question to you is, clearly people that well, my question to you is, what do you think about devolving the scope of practice issues down to reflect whatever the standards are within the given states that these va facilities are in . Number one and obviously want to make sure the providers are credentialed and trained to perform those duties within the scope
The form of non v. A. Care and choice care to get this right. If i can make two quick observations. Youre absolutely spot on. First of all we have to force ourselves to make certain decisions about what care can be most efficiently delivered in the community. So weve talked before my example the chairman remembers optometry. Why would we send a veteran 100 miles to get his eyes checked and get some glasses . We can do that anywhere. We wouldnt we routinely be referring that out to the community unless a veteran really wants to come to va. We are learning right now, again working to manage towards requirements rather than just a budget number, every time we improve access to care with a new facility, with additional staff, demand changes. Part of what were trying to understand are what are the dynamics. For example, you look in phoenix where we know were under penetrated in the veteran market. We improve access to care and we get a disproportionate response back. Weve got to understand
Enforcement agency of the country if you look, overall, at all these prosecutions, you will find a very biased approach including emphasis on racial cases. And those racial cases are what is in the news. That is what a lot of people approve of, and i understand that. If you do not treat everybody the same, we all lose. Th to jail for wall street. Wall street is run by democrats. Democrats do not prosecute democrats. Look at jon corzine, losing 1. 2 billion. Why is he not in jail . You have eric holder and bill clinton pardoning the biggest tax cheat in american history. Democrats are a corrupt organization. Host lena, habit. Attorney general has attorney general holder has begun to break the habit that individuals have become the law of the land. We know there are just and unjust laws on the lands in the books that are still to be rectified from his speech. I have people come up behind me in line and ask me are you in line . They do not realize how many people ask me that every day whe
Our chair chairman nunes for your leadership on this matter. Today i rise in support of h. R. 1560, protecting cybernetworks act, a bill im proud to be an original cosponsor, a bill that was unanimously voted out of our Intelligence Committee. Again, i want to commend both the chairman and the Ranking Member for their leadership. It is an honor to serve on that committee where we try on a daily basis to be bipartisan in our efforts to protect the homeland and to secure our National Security. This critical bill is both bipartisan legislation, which encourages the private sector to share cyber delet information which will cyber threat information. We are hearing about another company being hit by attacks. This costs our economy billions of dollars and threatens our National Security and jeopardizes every american personal, financial information.
