Call the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to order. We thank our witnesses for being here, and im looking forward to your testimony. As much of the world concentrates on the isis threat and instability in the middle east, the Committee Takes this opportunity to consider efforts by the United States and other partners to counter extremism in the Subsaharan African area. Longterm development has been the norm across much of africa including here tell you what. Ben, even with large letters i cant see anymore.

Thanks for inviting me to discuss the impact tsa security lines is having on our customers. Theres nothing more important to the the Airline Industry than the safety and security of our passengers, employees and cargo. We have never seen tsa wait times that affect airlines and passengers throughout the United States like weve seen in recent months. Without immediate leadership, the 231 million earn a americans that will board airplane this is summer will be frustrated and angry.
