We have more people trying to get in with the right skills and we have space for right now all. I am mindful of what are the advance indicators suggesting that is changing, though we will lose more than we can bring in. I would tell you the work force at u. S. Cybercommand will talk about the shutdown in 2013 as an example, is this, i get this everytime i talked to a work force round of world. Is this going to happen again . Am i going to be told by cant come to work . I may not be paid or i am going to be put on furlough like in 2013 . The situation were facing now and what the work force is reading in the media is not helpful. I agree, thank you. Admiral rogers, nice to see you. I have enjoyed our many classified briefings, i visited your headquarters and personnel around the world and the 3 million i represent, i want to thank not just you but the thousands of men and women you represent, they are patriots, professionals and responsible for saving thousands of american lives. In 2014 north korea us the sponsored hackers launch the cyberattack against hackers, sony called the fbi and asked for help. I understand somebody chose this course of action due to the fbi and expertise in the area of type cyber forensic and defense, they believed crime had been committed because of a strong relationship with the fbi. Do you believe they did the right thing by calling the fbi . I am not in a position to tell you why they did it. I am glad they reached out because the fbi reached out to nsa and we partnered by, never thought i would be dealing with the Motion Picture company about cybersecurity but i was grateful for their willingness to be upfront and honest. We received major penetration with massive theft of intellectual property and we need help from the government. The same way we encourage banks that have been held up or brick and Mortar Company that has been physically attacked to contact the fbi, you believe we should encourage these private sector actors to contact the fbi. The fbi needs to be part of this weather is the fbi, part of what i believe we need to do is simplify things for the private sector. When i talk to companies around the United States and eyewall for the approach cant you do more directly for us . No i can under the current construct i am struck by them telling me you guys of got to make this easier. The fbi, to youth because for example i am in the financial sector, should go to treasury, collectively in the government, the federal government we have to do a better job simplifying this, one access point, everything, the machine to machine speed to ensure accountability and privacy disseminated across all of us because there are so Many Organizations that to be effective you have to bring it in an orchestrated structured way. It cant be the kid with the soccer ball. The nsa is in charge of insurance operations for the federal government meaning they are in charge of ensuring National Security systems. Am i correct that the nsa and from time to time will also help federal agencies protect their and classified systems . Yes when they request the system. To your knowledge did the state department ever ask about the wisdom of setting up private server sets secretary clinton could conduct official state Department Business . I am not aware whether they did or didnt. What would be responsive the current secretary of state or another cabinet member said i would like to set up a nongovernmental server to conduct official business . You really want to drag me into this one . I would like your professional opinion. You need to ensure your are complying with applicable regulations and structures. I would be the first, i am not smart about what the rules and regulations are for every element across the federal government. Communications of senior most advisor s, those that might be unclassified, top priority for federal Intelligence Services . Yes. If they said we have reason to believe Russian Foreign ministers or iranian Foreign Ministers conducting official business how would you respond . Foreign intelligence perspective that represents opportunity. Are you aware of any nsa officials to email secretary clinton on her private account . I have no knowledge. Nsa officials were aware secretary clinton had a private email account in the server . You are talking about something before my time. I dont know the answer. Could i ask you to check your records . Question for the record. To this committee, that is just my opinion. I have a question. You indicated you were looking at reorganization. I know that isnt completed yet but still under way. What can you share with the public, on one of the reasons for and what you believe might bring about . I have been director of nsa for 18 months and spent the first portion of those 18 months focus on the aftermath, the we are structured as an organization, to make sure we were in position for the citizens as we are fully compliant, to execute our mission, for the protection of the data we access as well as the broad privacy of u. S. Citizens. I then froze the following question in the workforce. If we stay exactly the way we are, if we change nothing in five to ten years are we going to say, the worlds preeminence insurance, answering this question my concern is if we make more changes, we will not say that. We turn the organization, to tell whoever relieves me you should feel good we have structured this we know what we need to do. Theres a series of questions to the work force, and the organizational structure, how we need to optimize ourselves for cyber because in the next 15 years. And drives organization, it will require us to do things on a scale we have never done before and do it more proudly and to do that, the declining resource environment got to be more efficient to be effective. The other point, i dont want this decided by Senior Leadership where Global Enterprise composed of hard work in men and women, and input into what should the organization in future look like, what do we need to structure ourselves so in five to ten years changes happening in the world around us we can say nsa remains reagan and information sharing organization in the world. As a result of that we spend six months, organization today, the workforce tee up a set of recommendations numbering in excess of 200. They cover a very minor things to broad fingers, three final areas you want to spend more time on, the first was military part of the work force. I try to remind everybody, in the statement to you we are enterprise composed of civilian employees, military men and women active in reserve, officer and enlisted as well left contractors to optimize every single part of this enterprise to get moving, a second issue was i want you to think, cyber, far reaching, and a last one organizational structure. If you are looking at that is this what you would have created. And the last major organizational change, a wide swath since 19991998 in 20 years ago now. The world has changed and emissions have evolved and we want to make sure we are optimized to meet the future and so i will receive the final input on those three by the first of october. I will review a draft this weekend. And initial work to look at. As i indicated previously once we set out and decide what we think we ought to do is my intention to come back to the oversight. This is what i think it will generate in terms of value. The nsa in good hands. To highlight north carolinas hightech success, to represent Silicon Valley, and triangle park. I want to note there are 99 days left, and code breaker challenge, ranked number one out of 182. Depends on whether it is important to please the chairman. It is good but i think it highlights again something we both know. That that is the Fertile Ground you go to recruit, where we develop the next challenge the works at Silicon Valley and the nsa. And it really is the backbone of our intelligence organization. Your Mission Continues to change in large measure because of a technology explosion. Use an explosion like we have never seen before really. Only speed up, it will not slow down and your mission will be impacted by that innovation. I want to say we conclude the committee is year to be a partner. We are anxious to hear your reorganization plans because the reorganization gives you the flexibility to move to wherever the challenge forces the nsa to go and i speak on behalf of the vicechairman and myself when i asked you to please go back to the 40,000 plus nsa employees and on behalf of the committee thank them for the work that they do, work that many times the American People dont understand the value of but sleep safely at night because of that worked. This hearing is adjourned. [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] Burgess Everett is a reporter with politico and he reports on congress. The status of the temporary Government Spending bill, continuing resolution. Thanks for joining us, Burgess Everett. The senate took its first vote on temporary spending. Tell us the details of the legislation and what the result was. Wikipedia legislation they voted on today would have funded the government through december 11th but top of federal funding for planned parenthood and so we failed, didnt even get a majority today. This is an exercise to prove to the house that a spending bill Defunding Planned Parenthood cannot pass, would shut down the government if that was the position both chambers took. Guest and now eight is the republicans voted against advancing the cr. You treated out their names, here is a look at that, kirk, collins, cotton, sacks, mention was the only democrat that voted next, why with a voting no . Guest it was split down the middle, you had conservatives who were arguing they want to see a more robust spending process. Cohen said the military got shortchanged, rand paul says this is business as usual although he supports funding planned parenthood and you had people just trying to disassociate themselves with any threat of a shutdown and that would be in the summer house the, mark kirk, those types, they are they dont play the game, kelly in particular came to the senate floor earlier this week to blast the tactic of senator ted cruz that would risk a shutdown over planned parenthood. She is trying to get distance from the tactic of the funding planned parenthood in a government funding bill. You wrote a little about what Mitch Mcconnells strategy was and moving forward what are we looking at . The senate is essentially a kind of it will take a few days that really to a clean see are which will fund the government and not touch planned parenthood. Senator Mitch Mcconnell will set up starting on monday, probably finish work on this tuesday. Government shutdown thursday, wednesday the house will be confronted with the question of do we swallow this or do we shut down the government . The senate left the with no options. Host lets look at the house, things are pretty active, in motion. What has been happening . John boehner meeting with what is called the Freedom Caucus the issue are they and what are they talking about behind closed doors . Guest the Freedom Caucus is a group of several dozen almost a dissident republicans who want the leadership especially john boehner to take a harder line on almost everything. On this in particular they threatened to vote against the spending bill that doesnt fd Fund Planned Parenthood and that is the kind of choice john boehner has to make, whether he crosses them, he may face a referendum on his speakersship, if he doesnt he gets blamed for a government shutdown. Host they will meet early in the morning on friday, up what are we expecting might be coming out of those doors when they depart the rim they are meeting in . Guest the strategy john boehner is floating at this point leads to a clean see our but continues to fight against planned parenthood and also antiabortion legislation that would be separate from that and my guess is that is not going to do it for the supreme caucus. As significant amount of republicans will have a hard time voting for anything that funds planned parenthood so you will probably hear a lot of complaints and plenty of backing from john boehner from people who want a more responsible passage that does not ripped the shutdown and then you are probably going to hear next week the democrats are going to have to help john boehner pass this to keep the government funded if that is the ultimate direction he chooses, a listening session tomorrow to figure out where everybody is. Host would he have enough support if he tried to combine with democrats on this . Guest i believe he would bet that raise the question about his own political future, whether he kinky leading House Republicans to pass the tests or legislation with democrats carrying a lot of the load. A lot of criticism for having to rely on democratic votes in the past also wants to keep trains running on time. Difficult to do that with only republican votes. Host government funding conspiring on wednesday and we will keep falling you, your twitter handle is burgesseev and we can find your reading at political. Gov. Thank you.
