Stevens dismisses administration panel and thanks them

I have so many questions still.

However, I have so many people here who are signed up to testify, and I do not want to hold them hostage any longer.

So at this time, I'm going to...

Dismiss this panel.

I want to thank you for the conversation.

And also, this is not the end of the conversation.

This is a work in progress.

And again, my frustration is that these young people deserve better.

And I will fight to the end to ensure that they get it.

And the sense of urgency needs to be for everyone.

Everyone should be fired up and pissed off that these kids are not getting what they deserve.

And since no one else is, I will do it all on my own.

Because this is not okay for me.

I do not pretend and sit here and pretend like I don't.

I like this is not political for me.

This is my life work.

These young people deserve better and we are failing them.

All those young people that are in secure detention, each adult in this room needs to look at it as a failure on their own.

And I take that.

as serious that we're failing kids.

And so we need a sense of urgency.

So thank you.

I will continue these conversations because I have maybe like 30 more questions.

So I'll be sending them over looking for responses.

Thank you.

Thank you.
