OK, you say you’re fully cooperating with this committee, um, on July 15th, this committee sent you a list of demands of information that we wanted has the Secret Service provided this committee a complete list of all law enforcement personnel that were there that day. Have you done that? Have you provided a list to the oversight committee. Yes or no?Director Cheatle:
I’ll have to get back to you on that.Congresswoman Mace:
