mr. george. of the 19 recommendations that were made previously for corrective action, it appears that only eight of those 19 were implemented and perhaps some were closed before they were fully implemented. can you shed light on that? mr. george: in the amount of time we have left. i would ask for permission to submit my response in writing. we have made a number of recommendations, a total of 44 recommendations since march of this year. as of march of this year. 18 of those have been security audits that have yet to be -- recommendations for security audits that have net to be implemented. 10 of those recommendations come from five security audits that were completed during fiscal years 2008 to 2012. so they are very, very dated. and there are a couple of examples of some of the oldest recommendations that we made that we think might have had some bearing on the i.r.s.'s ability. senator scott: can you name one? mr. george: the i.r.s. should require a system administrators and their managers to

mr. george would agree with. that they're not supposed to provide information they know is not credible. yet that is what happened in this case. based on this record, i do not know why anyone would have confidence in any of the numbers issued by the inspector general. you have to turn page six to the inspector general's written testimony for today's hearing. it's very -- it's very general. but it says, and i quote, a review of these e-mails did not provide additional information for the purposes of our investigation and i hope that mr. george will explain that. so after all this work and after spending millions of dollars, republicans still have no new information to support their allegations. some people may be wondering if new e-mails do not advance the investigation in any way. then what are they? what are they? let me give you a few examples which the inspector general provided to us this week. i didn't do this. the inspector general gave it to us. on december 25th 2012, christmas day, mr. learner received an

mr. george? >> yes, she is. hello. gladis. thanks for the letter. mr. chairman, i ask for consent to enter this letter into the record. >> without objection, it's so ordered. >> i was reading the letter, mr. george, from attorney hernandez, that says 6,400. there's no caveat. there's nothing in there that says, oh, this could be fewer. could be fewer than 6,400. there's nothing in there. it doesn't say, there could be duplicates in here. stand by for the next number. could be coming next week. we didn't hear that from you either. now, this is not new to you, mr. george. you were a republican staffer for this committee. you understand that headlines are generated out of this committee. you understand how irresponsible it can be to throw out numbers with little or no basis because you know they'll work their way into headlines. folks who like to make insinuations, like the previous questioner, will throw that into headlines intentionally. there was also a question about the prior chairman pressuring your office, pressuring your office to come up with quic

mr. george? why do you do that? >> first of all, i would like to point out that when i had the honor of serving as a staffer here, it was with the late congressman horn from california who admonished us. we never leaked information during the course of an investigation prior to a hearing. i made a request of staffers during the course of this during the course of this investigation to act likewise. they did not do so. i cannot control their behavior. secondly, this was a response to a request we received. this was a transmitted letter, and i haven't seen it. it was from our counsel to the committee. i would request the opportunity to review this and to respond precisely. but thirdly -- >> you've heard of oliver holmes, haven't you? >> i went to harvard law school, yes. >> you agree with the truth, don't you? >> yes. >> when you keep changing your story the way your office has, you lose your credibility and people stop believing that you're telling the truth. >> congressman -- >> i yield back, mr. chairman. >> recogn

mr. george. >> vaguely. >> and mr. camus you testified that the i.g.'s office did not begin reviewing the circumstances surrounding miss learner's lost e-mails until june 16th, 2014. do you recall that testimony? >> yes, sir, i do. >> and now that the investigation is essentially complete, does the time line we just discussed still hold true? >> as far as our investigation goes it would still hold true. >> mr. camus did the investigation reveal any evidence that miss learner's saw three years into the future and knew you would one day investigate the loss of her e-mails. >> the investigation did not show that. >> all right. i yield back. >> gentlemen we want to thank you for your work and the work of the inspector general's office. good people working hard and looking at an awful lot of paperwork and we look forward to your final report and do report back how we rely on this body as an institution and a committee and with that this committee will stand adjourned. >>> the supreme court upheld the federal insurance subsidies on the affordable care act. at

mr. george. mr. george: thank you, chairman hatch, ranking member wyden, members of the committee. thank you for the opportunity to discuss the data breach that occurred at the internal revenue service. on may 26, 2015, the i.r.s. announced criminals had used taxpayer specific data acquired from noni.r.s. sources to gain unauthorized access to information on approximate 100,000 tax accounts through the i.r.s.'s get transcript application. our office of our office continues investigating this incident. according to reports previously from the i.r.s. which we have not yet validated, and individual or individuals succeeded in clearing an authentication process that required knowledge of prior information about the past -- the taxpayer, including social security number, dates of birth tax filing status, street address, as well as answers to personal identity verification questions that only the taxpayer would know. security of taxpayer data has been dedicated -- designated as the top concern facing the i.r.s. since fiscal year 2011. due to risk in this area we have an audit underway to

mr. george: thank you, senator. great question. i don't have a definitive answer at the time as the i.r.s. is trying to make the experience between the taxpayer and the i.r.s. more user-friendly. they're giving people opportunities to access information in ways heretofore that did not exist. it's a true challenge for the i.r.s. to make a balance between ease of access and the security. now, the private sector, as has been pointed out, has experienced these types of problems. they have aadapted, acquired different systems that would allow people to further authenticate who they are. there is a cost associated with doing that and whether or not the i.r.s. is in a position right now resource-wise to do so i would defer to the commissioner. but before sir, if i may -- one thing i do want to qualify here and that is -- clarify, i should say. we are still at the outset of this investigation but they have reports that this data breach originated solely from russia. .

mr. george will explain that. so after all this work and after spending millions of dollars, republicans still have no new information to support their allegations. some people may be wondering if new e-mails do not advance the investigation in any way. then what are they? what are they? let me give you a few examples which the inspector general provided to us this week. i didn't do this. the inspector general gave it to us. on december 25th, 2012, christmas day, mr. learner received an e-mail from ebay with an advertisement for holiday shopping meals. in another newly discovered e-mail sent a few days earlier, on december 22nd, ms. lerner received an offer from the -- shopping come for a nice bouquet. night quite the smoking gun that the republicans alleged. the fact is that ms. lerner's computer crashed. and we need to keep this in mind. the fact is ms. lerner's computer crashed before she was informed that irs employees in cincinnati were using inappropriate criteria to screen tax exempt applicants. this is not

mr. george. >> mr. chief justice, and may it please the court we're here representing the sons of confederate veterans because they wanted to have a license plate to raise money and in fact for the state of texas to keep up monuments which was the purpose of their whole process in this case. and the state of texas has gone about issuing an open invitation to everybody to submit to them public designs for license plates and to create and -- thus created a limited public forum for these license plates. >> can texas itself formally let's say, by a joint resolution of the legislature, endorse the grand army of therepublic and not the son's the confederacy. >> the legislature can endorse anything it -- >> can the legislature endorse austin hamburgers? >> the legislature has created a confederate heroes day and people on my side of this -- this side. >> what about american heroes. >> the government created a holiday for people -- for juneteenth when the slaves were free. >> why does this sncc your craw when i

mr. george those do not sound like resource issues. that sounds like a management issue. >> i agree, sir. >> reporter: victim mike kasper realized that his information had been stolen and failed efforts to get help directly from the irs. >> they said privacy rules at every step of the case when i tried to get more information, they would say privacy rules prevented them from doing that. >> reporter: the climb will extend far beyond the initial breach says a privacy expert. >> it's a very active black market in trading this information. >> reporter: though he repeatedly talked about the need for increasing funding and the agency can't keep up with cybercriminals much less get a step ahead of them he also admitted the latest breach was not caused by a lack of sufficient funding. bret? >> shannon thank you. >>> the ceo of amtrak is promising safety technology which could have prevented the deadly derailment in philadelphia would be put into operation. eight people died after the train entered a 50-miles-per-hour curve. >> at that time the

mr. george the inspector general. so there are challenges. >> what does the commissioner say when he hears the attorney general say 19 ideas and they weren't followed. he hasn't been there the whole time i might add. >> the question was, are these resource challenges or administrative challenges. and he said these are management challenges and mr. konsakin said -- nothing. >> is there no way it clean thousand get rid of managers that aren't doing anything. >> it helps who is at 1600 it helps a lot. >> why do you say na. >> at the end of the day, the president, ceo of this country, means when helps appoint bureaucracy that he oversees, it is his responsibility o in large part to make sure the folks that work for him are consistent. >> the people not doing these changes, irs, are they presidential appointments or civil service? >> civil service. >> so probably preceded president obama. >> some have preceded the president. they go as far back as 1997. bu over $5 billion paid out fraudulently. those go back to just 2011 2

mr. george those do not sound like resource issues. that sounds like a management issue. >> i agree, sir. >> reporter: victim mike kasper realized that his information had been stolen and failed efforts to get help directly from the irs. >> they said privacy rules at every step of the case when i tried to get more information, they would say privacy rules prevented them from doing that. >> reporter: the climb will extend far beyond the initial breach says a privacy expert. >> it's a very active black market in trading this information. >> reporter: though he repeatedly talked about the need for increasing funding and the agency can't keep up with cybercriminals much less get a step ahead of them he also admitted the latest breach was not caused by a lack of sufficient funding. bret? >> shannon thank you. >>> the ceo of amtrak is promising safety technology which could have prevented the deadly derailment in philadelphia would be put into operation. eight people died after the train entered a 50-miles-per-hour curve. >> at that time the

mr. george, could i just take you back to the chief justice's question for a moment and just make sure i understand it. mr. keller has indicated that there are a number of other occasion's in which the tate has disapproved plates on the ground offense. do you have any objections to those representations? >> to the extent that it were done on the grounds of offense i do, because he has one that i can -- that we have verified and that one is that there was a concern about danger on the drivers thinking that somebody's state trooper plate made them a state trooper. >> what if the argument were not simply offensive but higher degree, that incitement or likely to give rise -- i think someone driving in texas with a swastika is likely to be treated by public violencisms the level of the state interest at all pertinent no your position? >> well, this court's law on incitement going back to brannen berg viewers ohio and the klu klux klan rally this court decided was not incitement, is pretty thin at this point in our history because i don't know what the rule of incitement would be today. >> mr.

mr. george, if you had a standard like that in a case in a normal case where we were regulating private speech, of course we would find that imper miss illinois. but the question is whether this is a very different kind of context and let's go back to i think justice scalia said about the nature of license plates. i think there's a clear regulatory purpose here. it's the government that actually makes the license plate. i think the license plate continues to be public property, if that right. like you have to return the license plate. it has the state's name on it. it's clearly the official identification that the state gives with respect to a car so why doesn't all of that make this a very different case from the typical forum cases that we usually address? >> well, the reason is that we do have hybrid speech and they opened up and created this billboard, as justice alito said. they created a billboard opportunity, and they have since they can make everybody have a license plate, they said we're going to create a billboard opportunity, and put messages -- let you put messages on it and pay us
