The u. S. Southern border. Good morning, everybody. The hearing will come to order. Ill make an Opening Statement and then senator feinstein and i think senator cornyn and durbin would also like to make a statement. Then well swear in the witness and get on with the business before us. Before i make my Opening Statement, there was a meeting last night with senator shelby and senator mcconnell and the republican members of the Appropriations Committee. And theres a lot of talk about the disaster at the border in terms of humanitarian assistance needed yesterday. So i think the game plan is that were going to take the 4. 5 billion that was in the disaster package that was unfortunately taken out and mark it up next week as a standalone proposition to get money flowing to the border to deal with the Housing Conditions and take some stress, not only off the agents, but the migrants. I think it would be money wellspent as 3. 3 billion for humanitarian assistance increases in the shelter cap

Most of us know google as a search engine. It actually derives its name from the mathematical term. A one followed by a million zeros. Google is also the number of books that Eric Wittenberg has written. Eric is a nationally renowned speaker and the authority on Union Calvary. Particularly calvary operations in the east. What i like about erics overall has beenbooks is he boldly exploring all sorts of cool things and taking his explorations in meat directions. Work on aonly at manuscript of george meade and has conflict with the joint committee on the war and how that impacted him. Which does not seem like a calvary operation, to me. Yet it makes eric one of the most interesting historians working in the field. Coming from columbus, ohio to talk about his awardwinning book on john buford, Eric Wittenberg. It is always a pleasure to be here and i appreciate the opportunity to visit with you. Nobody wants to be the guy to go right after lunch. It fell upon me. If anybody falls asleep bec
