luria has decided to serve in the congress, commander elaine luria. mrs. luria: thank you and i stand here today as someone who served two decades in uniform. the first time i took the oath to protect and defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, i was 17 years old when i entered the naval academy and i never thought that fast forwarding today, i would be serving in this capacity why we had a violent mob attack our capitol. the process of the few -- a smooth transition of government. and like all of our colleagues have said we have to get to the bottom of this and can't be a partisan thing. i have spent on many deployments to the middle east and striking targets, foreign terrorist targets. but one thing about serving in the military is we don't ask about political party or partisanship. i did not turn to the person next to me and say are you a democrat or republican but it was about accomplishing a mission. i hope this committee can leave that partisanship at the door. these are answers the american people need and deserve abou
