this hearing of the senate judiciary committee would come to order. i would like to welcome everybody to today s hearing, the first hearing of the 100 and 18th congress. we have the opportunity to share good news about the committee. we reported nearly 40 bipartisan bills, including bills that were already signed into law to protect survivors of sexual assault and harassment, reject the safety of federal judges and their families, and fast and support law enforcement and more. we reestablished the oversight role of the committee over the fbi, doj, and homeland security. we had hearings on topics ranging from prisons to the fbi s mishandling of an investigation to holding war criminals to account. we worked in a successful fashion to fill vacancies on the federal court, justice department and the commission and more. we did all this despite the challenges of an evenly divided committee of seven, and though he is not here at the moment, i want to thank the senator from iowa
