  Mr. CARPER. Thank you, Madam President. I hope you are well today. 
Good to see you and our staff.
  I rise this morning to applaud the nomination of COL John Tien. He 
has been selected by our President to serve as the Deputy Secretary of 
the Department of Homeland Security, a very big job and an important 
job.
  I have the honor of currently serving as the senior member and former 
chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental 
Affairs, which is responsible for, among other things, overseeing the 
operations of the Department of Homeland Security.
