Ill let everybody get to their seats. All right. Miss gunders, if you will begin when you are ready, maam. Ranking member peterson and members of the committee thank you for inviting me to testify today and be willing to explore this issue. Any name is dana gunders, im a Senior Science at the National Resources Defense Council and the author of a widely cited report on food waste and a book called the wastefree kitchen handbook which is a guide to not wasting food. Imagine walking out of the Grocery Stores with five bags in the parking lot and dropping two and not bothering to pick them up.

Dr. Shaaban i really dont know. You know, if you are insinuating that we could possibly know that somebody is going to turn such a terrorist and we let him out of prison. He was taken to court and then he was released just as any prisoner would be released after he spends the time that he had to spend in prison. But i meant all the terrorists who came from out of syria
