involving that to a might be connected national security investigation, there's a chance that, that ommunication would be intercepted. not the fact that the call was made but also the content. call t's what we incidental collection. >> that collection is then aggregated. ou have databases that store all of these things and so there re lots of u.s. persons who have had communications, conversations that are recorded out there in a database. can you search that database for communications involving specific u.s. persons without getting a warrant? >> yes. >> and the fact that these communications were intercepted any showing sarily of wrong doing on the part of the u.s. person, without that that showing u.s. person had anything to do the the foreign -- with national security investigation at issue, does that cause you that, that could involve almost a back door way of going fter communications by u.s. persons in which they have a reasonable expectation of privacy? >> it doesn't cause me concern but maybe because of the way -- see from where i am. i understand the question though. what matters is ho

without that, there cannot be, within the integrated network, that clears access between the ommunity provider and the v.a. i think that one is probably the largest one that impacts on so many other things. and we trye resolved to tackle that one first and foremost, many of the other issues would be automatically resolved. >> thank you. >> i would like to add that, in terms of -- i think this report is -- it has been clear to us that the report has been provided in whole. if you start piece mailing it, you are not going to get the results of the recommendations going forward. for the sake of answering a question, i think, from our perspective, nothing can really have without an investment in leadership and the human capital management system. echo thed like to point of some of these recommendations that have been mentioned. i want to say that recommendation number one, although we do not support exactly how it is written, the need to reform the way the v.a. purchases care and how you integrate the private sector into the care model is vitally important. that is what is discussed when

and asking himself the question, are there particular c ommunities, groups of people, particular individuals who are in special need of experiencing this loving touch of god. he would take a step back, take a look around and then he would engage. he would go to the poor sections of one is aris. he would walk on foot through all of these alleyways in an effort to meet the people out there who rarely had a chance to see a priest. it's not so much a call to reinvent the will. it is a call to take a step back, examine the situation, and reengage with greater vigor. in my parish, for example i think of our little neighborhood in the southeast part of the city, on 24th street in alabama. that is where st. peter's is. saint anthony is on cesar chavez and folsom. my pastor and i recently took a step back ourselves in response to this call of pope francis. and asked ourselves, are there particular groups of people in our neighborhood who are in need of experiencing that mercy. it became clear to us in conjunction with the missionaries of charity. of late, there is a growing community of homeless peop

while environmental toxins and pollution know no class, race, low-income communities and ommunities of color share a -- share consequence. low-income communities and communities of color host facilities that have negative environmental impacts, such as landfills, refineries, chemical plants, freeways and ports. 78% of african-americans live -fired 30 miles of a coal power plant. latinos live in two of the top ozone polluted cities. for decades they have been battling these environmental injustices and seeking to build healthy, livable and sustainable communities. nepa recognizes when the public and federal government work together, better decisions are made. we have not solved the problem yet, but the solution is more inclusive, more rigorous, more rigorous use of the nepa process, not these constant industry-friendly attacks on the law. every person has a right to live, work and play in a healthy and safe environment, and yet too often the health of too many americans is determined by the race, class, zip code and street address. it's unfortunate and inefficient to have to come down h

relationships and partnerships at the community level is stakeholders' that can come in and provide support to .ommunities in need pee we talk about a engagements which allow us to have a return on investment with relationships that to driven locally go down to mrs. and mr. jones. we talk about unity of effort. it has to incorporate mr. and mrs. jones. to that extent, we do have risk prone communities that are prone to man-made and technological disasters. we tried to mitigate some of those challenges by articulating awareness information that is viable to stakeholders across the board. our challenge remains to enrich a public safety community of a little bit of over a quarter of a million people. the ever challenging saw that is the ability to sit down and communicate effectively with the upwards of 9 million people in our state. the use of social media naturally has been an incredible phenomenon. i think that it is redefining the way that we network with systems, institutions across the we were using it -- across the board. we were using traditional social media. inevitably, what we see is a need to imp
