Good morning. The committee will come to order. Without objection the chair is authorized to declare a recess at any time. With that i will recognize myself to give an opening statement. Two days ago the entire world came together to Mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day. In addition, 75 years ago this week, in january 1945, the auschwitz concentration camp was liberated from the nazis. It was one of the most infamous sites of the nazi genocide. More than a Million People were murdered there. The purpose of todays hearing is to commemorate these grave anniversaries to remember those we lost and honor those who are still with us. But it is not enough to sibley recognize these dates. We must also contemplate what led to the atrocities. We must remember the holocaust in order to combat bigotry, hate, and violence of all kind today. I am so pleased to have our distinguished panel here today. Ive asked them to help us come together on todays solemn occasion. Help us rise above issues
