Health Welfare and Related Aspects of Community War Services
"Strength, vigor, and unity of purpose are basic assets of the American people in this war. That is why community services to sustain health, security, and morale are essential to victory. That is why the State and local agencies, both public and voluntary, which provide services in the fields of health, welfare, nutrition, education, and recreation, must plan well and act effectively to meet wartime needs in every community. This statement prepared with the assistance of our committee on Community Organization, indicates some of the ways in which such organization can promote effective cooperative action by local, State, Federal, and national organizations in these fields. It points out some typical problems which must be faced and solved. It outlines the ways in which various Federal agencies can help. The duty of organizing these services in order to meet wartime needs promptly and economically is a joint responsibility of many agencies and organizations. The pattern suggested herein provides a framework within which all such agencies can develop their own services as part of an integrated program of community war services."

Future of Fusion Centers: Potential Promise and Dangers: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Intelligence, Information Sharing, and Terrorism Risk Assessment of the Committee on Homeland Security, House of Representatives, One Hundred Eleventh Congress, First Session, April 1, 2009
From the opening statement of Jane Harman: "This committee has said this many times that it won't be a bureaucrat in Washington who will thwart the next terror attack. It will be a cop on the beat, familiar with the rhythms and nuances of her neighborhood, who will notice something suspicious and be best positioned to do something about it. Fusion centers are uniquely local for this reason. One size cannot fit all, because communities and their populations are diverse, and so are their geographies. So it is fusion centers, in my view, who are the tool, hopefully, to empower that cop to know what to look for and what to do. But steps need to be taken to get this effort right. [...] This subcommittee held two hearings in the last Congress to address efforts underway to provide fusion centers with the mission focus, structure, and privacy and civil liberties resources they need to protect our homeland, while preserving our Constitution, which, obviously, is necessary to protect all of us. Today's hearing is intended to continue the examination of the challenges that fusion centers face, and to dispel some of the myths that still exist." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Jane Harman, Michael T. McCaul, Leroy D. Baca, Robert Riegle, Russell M. Porter, John E. Bateman, Bruce Fein, Ned Norris, and David D. Gersten.

S. Rept. 111-6: Report of the Select Committee on Intelligence, United States Senate, Covering the Period January 4, 2007 to January 2, 2009, March 9, 2009
The Select Committee on Intelligence submitted to the Senate this report on its activities from January 4, 2007 to January 2, 2009. This report includes the briefing of the CIA detainees who were transferred to Guantanamo in September 2006 and information about the CIA's detention program, which had previously been restricted to the Chairman and Vice Chairman. "In January 2007, during the first month covered by this report, President Bush nominated J. Michael McConnell to be the second Director of National Intelligence (DNI), replacing the first DNI, John D. Negroponte, who was nominated to be the Deputy Secretary of State. Also in January 2007, Attorney General Gonzales informed the Judiciary and Intelligence Committees that, as a result of a recent Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court ruling, electronic surveillance that had been conducted under the President's Terrorist Surveillance Program (TSP) would now be conducted under court authorization. Then, in March 2007, Chairman Rockefeller and Vice Chairman Bond commenced efforts with the Attorney General and DNI McConnell, whom the Senate had confirmed in February, to consider amendments to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The Committee's expanded knowledge of the CIA's detention program, and evolving circumstances concerning foreign intelligence surveillance matters, combined with priorities of the new DNI, and ever present and challenging intelligence issues relating to Iran, North Korea, Afghanistan and Pakistan, and Iraq, all served as the basis of important undertakings of the Committee during the 110th Congress."
