Asa Hutchinson Biography :

Mr. Hutchinson has served as a director since March 2005. Mr. Hutchinson was a founding member of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the nation's first Under Secretary of Border and Transportation Security. Mr. Hutchinson was confirmed by the U.S. Senate as Under Secretary of Homeland Security in January 2003, shortly after the department was created.

As one of the nation's top-ranking homeland security officials after Secretary Tom Ridge, Mr. Hutchinson was responsible for more than 110,000 federal employees in the Transportation Security Administration, Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. Mr. Hutchinson managed the overall security of U.S. borders and transportation systems.

Among the many initiatives led by Mr. Hutchinson during his tenure as Under Secretary are: modernizing border inspections through the successful reorganization of Customs and Border Protection; advancing new border technology for a biometric entry-exit system for foreign visitors to the United States; enhancing the security of transportation systems through new federal security requirements for the aviation, rail and transit sectors; innovative technology pilot programs for passenger and baggage screening; and more effective cargo inspections. Such initiatives included the US-VIST, TWIC and Register Traveler programs.

Prior to serving in DHS, Mr. Hutchinson led the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency for two years. He served three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives, where he was a prominent member of the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees.
