Hearings/Meetings
Note: The Committee's goal
is to provide access to electronic transcripts of all hearings and
markups as soon as possible. However, not all can be considered
"complete transcripts for the record," as they may not contain
questions and answers and/or other printed material submitted for
the record. In addition, although the utmost care is taken to
present an accurate record of each meeting, light editing of the
transcript has been allowed for readability.
