The centers changed the standard of delivery and gone from one, two, three, days to modified one so au so if youre in the same met oe metropolitan area. Thats modified one. If were outside the area, you might get it. You may not. Modified one, two, three. I think the Postal Service would like to go to two, three. Two day even in the same metropolitan area. It would be one but two would be the expectation and three. In terms of whats appropriate for us, im not comfortable with the Postal Service saying this is how many Mail Processing centers we should have. Some people say the more appropriate thing for us to do maybe with the involvement of the Regulatory Commission is to consider whether or not modified one, two, three days of service is appropriate. One, two, three is better or two, three is just fine. I would welcome any comments that you all have in it regard. Ms. Kennedy. I picked on mr. Miller all afternoon. Maybe i should come to you. My first thought is if we have declining fi
Fence jumper into the white house. Members question Julia Pierson about the breach and whats being done to improve white house security. This is three and a half hours. [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] the committee will come to order. The Oversight Committee access to secure fundamental principles. First americans have a right to know money washington takes from them is well spent and second americans deserve an efficient and effective government that works for them. Our duty on the oversight and Government Reform Committee is to protect these rights. Our solemn responsibility is to hold government accountable to taxpayers. It is our job to work tirelessly in partnership with citizen watchdogs to bring genuine reform to the federal bureaucracy. This is our mission and todays hearing follows one of the most important parts of that mission. With 1. 5 billion dollars spent by the secret Servi
Think that it will increase my skills and so we would say yes that makes sense and sometimes we dont. In terms of the flow of partnerships and information back and forth, ive been very public about saying for the National Security agency i would like us to create a model where the members of our workforce dont necessarily spend 30 or 45 years working directly for us which has been made historic norm. Its amazing when i say tell me how long youve been with the nsa. 30, 35 years, 38 years. I said goodbye to an employee after 50 years. When ive talked about is particularly given the state of the technology, we have to create a world where evil from nsa can leave for life and work in the private sector provides also like to create a world where does private sector can come spend a little time with us because one of the challenges is the nation that we are dealing with and you have seen this play out over the last year or so in particular. We talk past each other a lot because we dont under
We need to make sure the second isdest target on earth through with reality and in the minds of anyone who might take on the secret service to get to the president or first family. Without a recognized the member for his Opening Statement. Thank you. With an obvious premise. No individual should be allowed to feel scaled the fence at the white house, sprint across the north lawn, and burst into the residence of the first family with 11. No one. Our goal today is also clear, to determine how this happened and make sure it never happens again. This is our watch. This recent incident unfortunately causes many people a ask whether or not there is much broader problem with the secret service. Last night the Washington Post reported Omar Gonzalez made his way into the east room. Another incident in 2011 about a shooting raises more questions about the competency and culture of this delete agency. Most about this report is agents said they were hesitant. Agents in this agency said they were h
Revenue so we can get a hold on that issue. One of the examples, one thats got a lot of press not too long parking operations here and received a payment of 483 million to put into the endowment. The 483 million generates revenue every year that goes to support pack faculty but also scholarship support and other things. Those are things i think institutions have to look at, too, with creative ways to that fund the university that is not on the backs of students by simply increasing tuition every year. Those are the kinds of things we need to do. Real quickly because we only have a minute left. Diversity, andne how do you achieve that . Another great question. Diversity to us is on every single dimension. Diversity ofave a income backgrounds of our students. It means a diversity of representations of under represented minorities. A diversity of the countries that our students come from. So there is probably not a dimension that we do not look at when it comes to diversity, because we be
