I was glad to see the Commission resists to adding any uncertainty into such an important part of our credit markets.

There are deep concerns there. We have got, potentially, Chinese companies working with the Mexican Military to take adverse actions on U.S. assets.

We need to make sure that the equipment market is more diverse, and more competitive, and less costly.

Anything that increases the cost of producing energy right now... is putting our Nation at a point of weaker, weaker economic security, weaker national security.

We have an exceptional job ahead of us. We are challenged in conducting rigorous oversight to strengthen U.S. financial systems and ensure that the dollars that taxpayers have entrusted to us with are spent responsibly.

I could not agree with you more about the criticality of telecommunications infrastructure, particularly given the difficulties that we have had with Huawei, ZTE, and others that are trying to invade the entire 5G infrastructure system.

To enhance the passenger experience, we must ensure air travel is accessible, safe and dignified for all passengers.

I think the specter of this being presented is a false choice. And the specter that you present does not have to be that.

It damages the confidence of taxpayers in America.

It is putting our Nation at a point of weaker, weaker economic security, weaker national security.

I think that is a grave concern, as you just described, that Mexico would take this sort of arbitrary and very detrimental action against U.S. assets.

If I could come back again where I started here, in terms of the tendency to exceed the mandate of the SEC.

I am deeply concerned by these reports, that such a program would not only constitute a misuse of the ESF, but it would circumvent Congress's role in approving such an action.

And massively increases taxes at a time when we are trying to recover our economy.

I look forward to working together with you and my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to move forward a budget that will strengthen our national security and advance our energy independence.

There was also a failure at the San Francisco Fed in terms of the oversight that they should have been providing.
