want venezuela to be friendlier to cuba than it already is it's hard to imagine what more than a sewell a can do for cuba but not doing as you say lacks the leadership power and he's got this internal split that he has to deal with while the price of oil is going down and so he's been handed a poisoned chalice if you like. but so he's been handed a poisoned chalice if you like although there are many people watching the election who said that they hoped it would win not cup but he lace although they supported company lace precisely using that metaphor that it is a poison chalice and they wanted might do though to have to drink from it because he chavez's heir been opposed to swell for the opposition has been opposed talk of present shown how strong the opposition is isn't it. well mainly it's you know the opposition only got forty less than forty six percent of the vote against this shot is in october so what's happened is that many of the people who voted for stop is the last election that's what it was alive but i don't think that has what it takes is a leader of venezuela so they sho

sewell, please. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i also want to thank you gentlemen for your service to our nation as well as is for your appearance here today at the hearing. what this committee considered yesterday was a cyberbill, and i guess i really want to direct my first question to you, director clapper, regarding cyberattacks and whether or not you think what we can do to make sure that hose attacks are thwarted. >> our role in the intelligence community is to provide the intelligence across the board. i will say both the f.b.i. and the department of defense, specifically d.o.d., for that matter all of us have a role to play in providing that policymakers, operators, etc. i also completely agree with i think underlying tenet of the bill that you passed yesterday, which recognizes the importance of partnership between the government. we certainly collectively cannot do it all. and we do need the help and assistance and cooperation of the civil sector. and so that's -- i guess that's all i'd say to answer the question. >> if

sewell: well, madam speaker, today i support -- i rise to support the bill. i can say, madam speaker, that i actually voted against the bill last term, but today i am proud to say, because of the hard work of both the chairman and the ranking member, and so many members on this committee, that today i stand before you in support of the bill. i am now a new member of the intelligence committee, and as i've told my staff, the more you know the better you can vote. and today i want to rise to explain why i am voting for this bill. you know, i think that everybody agrees that there are cyberthreats each and every day. and in fact, director clapper, the director of the national intelligence, he actually said his number one thing that keeps him up at night is cyberattacks, and what this bill will do is simply to share information. it is not about releasing personal identifiable information. that is strictly prohibited by this bill. so it is strictly prohibited by this bill. and this bill has been greatly enhanced by so many of my wonderful colleagues who have submi
