Thank you very much for coming forward and for saying what you have.
I surmise that essentially you're looking for accountability, transparency, and most of all democracy in what is supposed to be an organization of members. I'm sure you'll get unanimous support from the committee on that. We know that this has been an area of concern.
You mentioned that you're afraid, and I have a concern about that. If you're concerned that by testifying in front of the committee you might find yourself in their bad books, then I certainly want you to contact me or any other member of the committee if anything of that sort happens. We would very much want to watch to make sure that this does not happen.
