Before we begin, our thoughts and prayers go out to all of the victims and their families in last night's horrific terrorist attack in #Nice

Thanks to our witnesses for dedicated public service in the wake of the devastating terrorist attack and mass shooting at Pulse Nightclub

The purpose of the Urban Area Security Initiative is to assist cities in their anti-terrorism preparedness and response efforts.

#Boston, #Orlando, & other cities have had issues receiving this funding in the past. We need to ensure cities receive funding they need.
