I think that Senator Thune and I would agree that you should, for what it's worth.

I understand that your hands are tied in many ways, because this is more complicated than just this issue, because obviously, in case anyone isn't paying attention, a lot of our friends in the European Union are stressed right now and we…

I believe it is critical that this Committee conduct rigorous oversight to ensure that the financial regulators do not repeat the mistakes of the past.

The refusal of the Bureau, a lot of us believe, to issue clear rules means that banks will have higher costs, more exposure to lawsuits, and less effective operations, something I do not think Congress intended.

The American public, I believe, has a right to know whether these trades threatened or could have threatened the solvency of the bank.

Mr. President, first, let me join so many of my colleagues in thanking the Senator from Maryland for being such a steadfast and strong champion and a model for me as a newcomer of leadership in the Senate. I thank all the women who have…
