                  COMMERCE, JUSTICE, SCIENCE, AND RE-
                    LATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS FOR
                    FISCAL YEAR 2019


                                   WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, 2018

                                                         U.S. SENATE,
                       SUBCOMMITTEE  OF THE COMMITTEE  ON APPROPRIATIONS,
                                                             Washington, DC.
                    The subcommittee  met at 2:31 p.m., in room SD-138, Dirksen
                  Senate Office Building, Hon. Jerry Moran (Chairman) presiding.
                    Present: Senators Moran, Murkowski, Collins, Boozman, Capito,
                  Lankford, Shaheen, Leahy, Feinstein, Coons, and Van Hollen.
                             FEDERAL   BUREAU   OF INVESTIGATION

                  STATEMENT  OF HON. CHRISTOPHER  A. WRAY, DIRECTOR
                           OPENING  STATEMENT OF SENATOR JERRY MORAN
                    Senator MORAN. As soon as I can see you, Director, I will call the
                  Subcommittee  on Commerce,  Justice, and Science, and Related
                  Agencies to come to order.
                    We  have logistical issues today, in which there are votes called
                  at 3 o'clock. I think there are two votes. Our hearing was intended
                  and will be a two-part set of hearings, this one in public, and then
                  we will convene to the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facil-
                  ity (SCIF) in the Visitors Center in the United States Capitol for
                  a more classified briefing. We intend to do that.
                    Senator Shaheen and I have generally agreed to forgo our open-
                  ing statements. I will hold Members, Senator Feinstein is the only
                  one here to hear this, but I will do everything I can, including with
                  Senator Leahy, to restrict everyone to their 5 minutes, and I will
                  use the gavel to accomplish that.
                    I will also attempt to call the hearing to reconvene in the SCIF
                  following the second vote of a two-vote series, so we will try to get
                  started as early as we can there. In that setting, we will work hard
                  to give everybody an opportunity to pursue things that maybe they
                  did not get to pursue here.
                    Let me  just say, as my opening statement, Director, it is an
                  honor to have you here in front of us. It has been a pleasure to get
                  to know you. I express my gratitude to you and the people who
                  work at the FBI and other agencies related to our national security
                  and combating crime and  terrorism. I am very grateful for their
                  service to our Nation and the efforts that are so often successful
                                               (1)
