i asked the inspector general, michael horowitz to investigate thompson. one year ago the special management unit at thompson was finally closed for good and now we have the findings of the inspector general's investigation. the inspector general found things that are truly disturbing about our american prison system. he reports that operational and managerial divisioncies -- deficiencies have created threats to incarcerated individuals. like the failure to comply with policy, understaffing has increased the risk and contributed to more and more deaths that are preventible. a prison sentence should not be a death sentence in america. the inspector general's report also highlights that over half of the deaths in the scope -- in the scope were suicides and almost half the suicides occurred in restricted housing otherwise known as solitary confinement, the gao released a compelling report on solitary confinement. the be findings were extremely troubling. as of october 2023, the bureau of prisons household almost 8% of his prison population in solitary. almost

i was shaken by the allegations in the article and asked inspector general ha'aretz to examine them. we will discuss the results today. after media reports late last year alleged that some adults in custody died while awaiting for necessary medical care, i called on bop to change its procedures, staff and supply medical units so incarcerated individuals could receive the care they needed. it is evident that many of the issues the committee has highlighted over the years included understaffing, overuse of restrictive housing and employee misconduct that will continue to have deadly consequences if they go unaddressed. the inspector general report identified 344 nonmedical deaths of adults in custody and it's reviewed period, 2014 to 2021 but the number that demonstrate increased risk to safety of individuals with bop care. bop continues to struggle with contraband interdiction and

the inspector general found room for fraud in this program. this is simply meant to close a loophole to ensure the service is doing what it was intended to do, to give small, women-owned businesses an opportunity to compete on a level playing field. it ensures the contracts are awarded justly. we have a goal of reward -- of awarding 5% of government contracts to women-owned small businesses. we have no way of knowing how well we're doing meeting that goal if we don't have any way of certifying that these wosb's are in fact small businesses. with that, i encourage my colleagues to support this bill. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields. the gentleman from texas. mr. williams: reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from new york is recognized. ms. velazquez: i'm prepared to close. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized. ms. velazquez: thank you. i rise in strong support of this legislation and i thank ms. maloy and ms. colton for this legislation and i yield back the plans of my time. the speaker

because we had an inspector general. alled a special inspector general for afghanistan construction. i had a proposal, i said why don't we take the inspector general who is doing this in afghanistan, already has a budget, because i happen to be incentive with everything -- conservative with everything, the guy doesn't have a budget, he has $60 million in his budget. i said let's switch it over. when i go home people mention it, i have not heard of one person opposed to it it i have not heard of one person opposed to having an inspector general. so we voted on it, the other side almost universally vowed it down and some on my side voted against it. why? because the inspector general has as history of finding waste. i picked him because he is apparently good at his job. he has serious economists, accountants, people used to looking at war spending and he finds the people wasting it. he writes a book on it every year. one of the waste projects that he found was a natural gas gas station. now, this is the kind ludicrous stuff

they don't want an inspector general. but if you ask them, well, you don't want to oversee the money? they would say, oh, no, the pentagon or the state department or somebody already has an inspector general, they'll do it. i said, oh, you mean the pentagon that can't be audited, the pentagon that refuses to be audited, the pentagon that says they're too big to be audited. you trust them to oversee the money going to ukraine? when ukraine has a history of being in the bottom 10% as far as corruption, meaning they have had more corruption than the other 90% of countries, i think that's kind of crazy. even if you were for the money, you would think that the power of 41 -- 41 supposedly conservative republicans could look them in the eye and say, we are going to give you the money, we want this, this, and this, they have the power to do it. they abdicated their power, they said we're not going to do anything on the border but we're not even going to ask for an inspector general. we're fine. shovel it out the door. where is th

legislation would establish an office for an inspector general for ukraine assistance to oversee all funding made available in support of ukraine. specifically this legislation requires the president's nominee to serves the special inspector general for ukraine assistance to be confirmed by the senate. direct the inspector general for ukraine assistance to submit quarterly reports to congress on obligations and expenditures of u.s. funds and the provision of military equipment, require report on the ukrainian government's compliance when anti-corruption measures and comparisons of america's contribution to ukraine to those from our nato allies. mr. speaker, oversight of taxpayer dollars and resources should never be cast aside or abandoned. we can stamp out wasteful spending, put our country's needs first, and ensure effective oversight of taxpayer dollars, all at the same time. my record on cutting wasteful spending is clear, and i will always fight to ensure that the dollars of hardworking taxpayers are not only respected but also protected. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: th

even the special inspector general who oversaw afghanistan and also, you know, house republicans, theanistan's spending, he warned this needs to be closer oversight on ukraine spending. he's -- there's also concerns about the u.s. weapons falling into terrorist hands bz and u.s. dollars going into these corrupt officials' pockets and things like overseas offshore bank accounts. what do you think? >> oh, he's absolutely right. and he found a great deal of fraud, waste and abuse in the afghan campaign and, frankly, we left $83 billion of equipment and infrastructure behind when we left to the people we took the country away from after nerve, which which boths -- nerve, which bothers boths of us who were in afghanistan to no end. he's right, actually the house passed an approval to create a special inspector general for ukraine, and the senate denied the claim. you can question exactly what their motivation was, but certainly it wasn't to instill accountability. look, it's a basic requirement. if we're going to spend billions, we ought to know where it goes. the american people have a ri

let me remind you that the day before , the generals arrived in kyiv for inspections inspectors fromhe ministry of defense and the state department of the united states of america, as well as. agencies for international development, this happened because the pentagon does not have enough information about 2% of the weapons that were transferred to ukraine from the 14th year, starting. well, so that there would be no complaints, they decided to conduct the mobilization on camera in the lviv region, during patrols and events and alerting citizens, the military will film everything on body cameras. the video will go to the territorial picking center, it will be reviewed in case it arises the necessity of the events that happened and to objectively understand the conflict situation, noted in the regional military administration. germany has updated the list of military aid supplied to ukraine, among other things, these are missiles for the iriste sls anti-aircraft missile systems and four bandwang 206 all-terrain missiles. the supply includes 24 more armored personnel carriers, one biebe
