This is the June 2, 2015 hearing on "The Outer Ring of Border Security: DHS's International Security Programs," held before the House Committee on Border and Maritime Security. From the opening statement of Candice Miller: "Today the DHS has a large footprint overseas with more than 1,800 people stationed in 77 foreign countries across the globe. I certainly understand that the posting of DHS personnel overseas is a cumbersome process with significant costs. In many cases, it costs more than $500,000 per person each year. Space is limited at many consulates and embassies overseas." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Alan D. Bersin, John Wagner, Lev J. Kubiak, and Rebecca Gambler.
