           December 9, 2011


           The Honorable Daniel K. Akaka
           Chairman
           Subcommittee on Oversight of Government Management, the Federal Workforce,
           and the District of Columbia

           The Honorable Thomas R. Carper
           Chairman
           Subcommittee on Federal Financial Management, Government Information,
           Federal Services, and International Security
           Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs

           The Honorable Mark R. Warner

           (GPRA) Modernization Act of 2010 (GPRAMA)1 calls for a more coordinated and




           1 Pub. L. No. 111-352, 124 Stat. 3866 (2011). GPRAMA amends the Government Performance and
           Results Act of 1993, Pub. L. No. 103-62, 107 Stat. 285 (1993).
