  • Statement of Brian D. Miller Inspector General General Services Administration
    Statement of Brian D. Miller Inspector General General Services Administration Before the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform United States House of Representatives Allegations of Misconduct at the General Services Administration Wednesday, March 28th, 2007 Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for providing me with this opportunity to update you and your colleagues about the work of the Office of Inspector General (OIG) at the General Services Administration (GSA). First, let me say that I am truly honored and privileged to lead such a dedicated and professional group of public servants. They work hard everyday to see to it that the taxpayers’ dollars are spent wisely and efficiently and that federal laws and regulations are followed. Second, I want to express my deep appreciation to you, Mr. Chairman, the Members of this Committee, other Members of Congress, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and to GSA staff who have worked with us to achieve what I believe are tremendous results for the taxpayers of our great country. Today, my testimony will address a few of the accomplishments of GSA OIG and its new ventures. I will also provide a detailed overview of some of the challenges GSA OIG faces with the new GSA Administrator since she took office on May 31, 2006. Background I have devoted most of my professional life to public service. For roughly a decade and a half prior to becoming Inspector General at GSA, I served as a career federal attorney. As an Assistant United States Attorney, I worked on a variety of federal cases, including terrorism cases—perhaps most notably the case against Zacharias Moussaoui.

  • The Brookings Institution a Conversation on Politics
    1 THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION A CONVERSATION ON POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT WITH U.S. REPRESENTATIVE RAHM EMANUEL (D-IL) Washington, D.C. Wednesday, April 25, 2007 Introduction: PIETRO NIVOLA Vice President and Director, Governance Studies, The Brookings Institution Featured Speaker: THE HONORABLE RAHM EMANUEL United States House of Representatives Moderator: THOMAS MANN Senior Fellow, The Brookings Institution * * * * * ANDERSON COURT REPORTING 706 Duke Street, Suite 100 Alexandria, VA 22314 Phone (703) 519-7180 Fax (703) 519-7190 2 P R O C E E D I N G S MR. NIVOLA: Good morning. It's my pleasure to introduce Congressman Rahm Emanuel of Illinois this morning. Congressman Emanuel is the Chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, as you know. He also sits on the House's most prestigious committee — Ways and Means. Before being elected to Congress, Congressman Emanuel was the key advisor to President Clinton and played a big part in many of the Clinton Administration's most important initiatives and accomplishments, including welfare reform, the ratification of the North American Free Trade Agreement, the 1993 budget agreement, the 1994 Crime Bill, and efforts to expand health insurance for uninsured children. Representative Emanuel chaired the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in the months leading up to last fall's election. As many of you know, the political parties in this country have been playing a much more proactive and centralized role in slating candidates for office than they did perhaps a generation or so ago. The smart selection of candidates — thanks I think to Congressman Emanuel's sound centrist instincts — went a long way to securing the Democratic Party's substantial gains in last November's election.
