Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would say the Member speaks to a goal that is held by myself, the department, and the colleges. We would like to, all of us, be much more successful at increasing adult literacy, adult education to improve people's chances for success. Yes, I think the report is one step on the road to developing the plan. We need to know what is working now. Are we being successful with the programs we are delivering? If not, why not? What can we do to change the programs to make sure they are more successful? We cannot just pour millions of dollars into something without knowing what works. At this point, we do not have all of that information at hand. We need to assess how we have been delivering the programs, how well they have been working, and what we can do to improve them. Thank you.
