And we need to engage in a bipartisan and thoughtful way in advancing why it is in americas interests to prevent the collapse of even more larger and potentially dangerous states.

We follow that hearing with several round tables to help us understand what disasters cost this country, who pays those costs and whether the problem is Getting Better or worse. Early last year, Ranking Member carson and i introduced the fema format to call for the First Comprehensive assessment of disaster cost and losses in over 20 years. We also wanted to reform several Disaster Assistance programs to make them more efficient. If february, the house passed the fema legislation and we hope the senate will take up hr1471 and pass it soon. The purpose of todays hearing is to discuss what we have learned so far and begin exploring potential solutions, particularly the principals that should be driving those solutions. While there are si
