Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner (D-VA) proposed a few reform proposals in the wake of classified military documents leaking online.

Warner suggested that the intelligence community should classify less material and tighten access to its most sensitive secrets. Warner also said that there should be a single entity overseeing the nation's deepest secrets."We way over-classify documents," Warner told ABC's This Week. "Once we get to that highest level of classification, we maybe have too many folks taking a look at them. Over 4 million people with clearances. So, let's classify less.

Many, such as Warner's counterpart House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner , have raised questions about how Teixeira, a cyber transport systems journeyman, even had access to that material in the first place. "If this had been at another entity another agency like the NSA, where unfortunately we've had leaks in the past, there would have been internal controls that would say, you just can't copy that many documents. We need to make sure we've got similar internal controls across the whole system," Warner added.

Warner appeared to allude to concerns about bottlenecking intelligence access in his calls for reform.
