Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. Thank you to you and your staff for moving the bill that I have with Senator Cornyn on the agenda next week.

I believe if they did, there would be a cry that we have never heard before in this country to stop trafficking.

It is still a mystery to most people when you go and talk to them about human trafficking.

I think there are about a dozen States now that have the safe harbor law.

We have in there a national sex trafficking strategy.

We really appreciate the work that you do, the service you give to this country, not only saving taxpayers money, but also making sure that the policies that are in place, that we put in place and others, are actually followed.

Do you have adequate data to perform that analysis, particularly when it comes to reentry programs?

It is critical. If you are going to do performance-based reviews of government programs, you need strong metrics and underlying data to do that.

One of the key purposes of Federal investments in higher education is to make college more affordable for people who can't afford to spend tens of thousands of dollars every year to get an education.

Would you commit if we reduce these regulations to giving a cost estimate and to passing those savings on along to our students?

I actually just want to add my voice to yours about the importance of supporting public education.

the biggest banks in the country to continue to receive taxpayer protection for some of their riskiest derivatives and swaps.

The cost is too high. Part of the reason the cost is too high, you're telling us, is because of regulations imposed by the Federal Government.

We have got to get back to investing in our kids so they get a chance to get a decent education without being crushed by student loan debt.

We're putting $160 billion into universities all across this country. ... we want to see something on the other side.

there have been no consequences for the most recent leak.

The Fed is our first line of defense against another financial crisis.

I think that we are just going to be debating the amount of fuzz that is created here.
