GOVERNMENT INFORMATION GP COMMERCE, JUSTICE, SCIENCE, AND RE- LATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2019 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 25, 2018 U.S. SENATE, SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS, Washington, DC.

Present: Senators Moran, Shelby, Alexander, Murkowski, Collins, Graham, Boozman, Capito, Lankford, Kennedy, Shaheen, Leahy, Feinstein, Coons, Schatz, Manchin, and Van Hollen. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE STATEMENT OF HON. JEFF SESSIONS, ATTORNEY GENERAL OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR JERRY MORAN Senator MORAN. Good afternoon. I call the hearing to order. Mr. Attorney General, welcome to the committee, the Committee on Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations Subcommittee. We're here to examine the Department of Justice's fiscal year 2019 budg- et request. I am pleased to welcome you to this subcommittee. My colleagues and I are very much interested in hearing from you in your-hear- ing your testimony, considering your testimony today. Your input is not only helpful, but necessary, as we review the President's spending priorities for the Justice Department. While this hearing is about the Department's fiscal year 2019 budget request, I would suspect that you will hear about a number of other issues unrelated to the Department's resource and funding needs. My focus in this hearing is to better understand your top funding priorities and to emphasize those that are important to our Nation. The Department of Justice is responsible for, and involved in, many important national priorities. Arguably, the greatest respon- sibility includes keeping Americans safe, which carries a new meaning, given the growing national security threats of today, and upholding the rule of law. This requires that Congress adequately fund our Nation's law enforcement efforts, including counterter- rorism and cybersecurity initiatives. (1)
