we know that fema has a major role to play. the vice president said fema would coordinate the outbreak response activities. i look forward to assessing where we are in our response with a focus on transparency, coordination and necessary oversight. mr. chairman, again, thank you for bringing us together. craig fugate, thank you for joining us. i yield back. rep. payne: thank you. mr. fugate, if you don't mind, i would like to jump in to questions. actually, let me give you a few minutes to give an overview of the response the you have seen at fema during this pandemic. fmr. fema admin. fugate: well, as anybody has watched, when fema was placed in the job of helping coordinate all this, this goes back to the planning we did in the h1n1 pandemic, looking at sars and mers, and then ebola. fema would be a support agency to the centers for disease control and health and human services. we would bring the resources of fema to support them, including logistics, things like the air bridge, which are things fema has done for other disas

and katherine johnson played a significant role in that. you know, katherine is from a small town a few hours from west virginia state university. it's called white sulfur springs. and we had the privilege to have er little beautiful face on our campus at the age of 10. because she was unable to go to high school in her hometown because of the hue of her skin. so she and her family had to travel two hours to come to west virginia state university. we had an elementary and a high school that was a part of the university at the time. a young katherine johnson with all of her mathematical skims and intelligence came here, and she graduated at the age of 15. and westbury is state college -- what was then west virginia state college. she left us at the age of 18. she never looked back. in 1937 when she graduated, she went into the field of teaching. she was inspired here and understood the very significance of teaching and paying it forward. and so she went into teaching for about 13 years. katherine entered nasa at a time when african americans

those roles are completely distinct and different than the role in which i served now as a judge. sure you are aware, the policymaking branches of government exercise the will of the people. to be a judge on the court, any court, we are only to exercise judgment in deciding cases and controversies that come before the court in accordance with binding precedent and the statutes, the law the legislative branch next. sen. graham: when it comes to the supreme court cases, do you feel bound by those if you're on the circuit? judge wilson: absolutely. the supreme court precedent is binding precedent, much as the state supreme court precedent is binding on the mississippi court of appeals. sen. graham: if you could -- you got about a minute -- what would you like to accomplish? why do you want this job and why do you think you are qualified for it? judge wilson: senator, as far as wanting this job, this is an incredible opportunity to serve our country. i've had a heart for public service much of my adult life. i have been privileged to serve in various capacities. i passionately believe

fema has been given a leadership role in this response. what were some of the things that were in place during our response to those crises, if you will, that you believe worked and could be an official today, that we are not seeing? mr. fugate: the first one was science led policy. we were in lockstep with health officials who were making recommendations. so in that administration, we were very much following the lead of our experts. the second thing was we early on identified protective equipment was going to be a key shortfall. the national stockpiles were not designed for pandemics. they were designed for terrorism and very localized responses. in a pandemic they would serve as the initial push packages. because so much of our health , theis made overseas defense production act would be a tool that would have to be considered early. the challenges which we saw which i saw in this response as well, when you need to do this, you may not have a lot of cases. we will get a lot of stuff we don't need. the problem was, and as we saw with thi
