Director clancy, thank you for being here. Yes, sir. One of the problems we have around here frequently is that when we do budgets, we dont think tax cuts affect the budget, and that budget cuts dont affect your ability to provide services. Can you describe a little bit about the budget ups and downs over the last three or four years . Yes, sir. When i came back to the secret service and accepted this position, i identified three three main areas of concern. One was staffing. One was training. And obviously the morale, as well. Staffing is its a complicated issue. Back in 2011, we were at a high point with our staffing. We had approximately 7,024 security personnel back in 2011. 2012 and 2011 im sorry, 2012 and 2013 we had a severe dropoff.
