Chairman TOM DAVIS. Good morning.

The committee will come to order. I want to thank everybody for coming.

We are here today nearly 3 years removed from that terrible day of September 11th to simultaneously look back and look forward. We grieve again for the men and women who lost their lives and pray once more for their loved ones. But it is also a time to remind ourselves of the important challenges ahead, the tasks of securing our Nation and eradicating terrorist networks around the globe.
