John F. Kerry: “I really appreciate the coordinated nonpartisan and bipartisan efforts that we have been making in this Committee”

I apologize very much for being late. I expected to be on time, but I was meeting with some of the families, military families of kids who were in Iraq

I will continue to oppose every bad policy, to question every baseless assertion, and to advocate for a wiser course that will make our country more secure.

In an effort to try to make sure it doesn't, we put a provision in the amendment that authorizes the SBA to make the supplemental loans for Katrina victims that included oversight protections.

We will do everything in our power to help you, and I think your last comment is very important.
