The Senator speaking at 49 minutes is Senator Leahy. Senator Leahy (D, Vermont): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Leahy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Leahy Other senators also ask some pointed questions, notably: Senator Johanns (R, Nebraska): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Johanns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Johanns Senator Merkley (D, Oregon): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Merkley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Merkley Senator Tom Udall (D, New Mexico): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Udall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Udall Also, Senator Feinstein -- despite being a bit of a wind-bag and despite her enthusiastic support for gun-control -- directed Wednesday's NSA/cyber-security hearing pretty well. The video offers some very interesting contrast between assumptions that all of congress is bought and paid for, and that voter apathy has translated directly to congressional apathy, but it's simply not true. Senators that look beyond the next election cycle (or their retirement) may be few and far between, but they're out there.
