Have you all done any sort of analysis of how your collection efforts might be impacting the people involved here?

I am going to do everything I can to make sure that does not happen.

They are doing the best that they can do. Yes, they are doing it the way they ought to be doing it.

I think it cost them something like a million dollars a week just to maintain.

OK. So having floods in, say, North Dakota or something is one thing. Do you think these the new procedures--will stand up to another massive disaster like a hurricane, or something similarly large-scale, such as earthquakes?

But have you done any analysis of how much it actually costs to try to collect?

At any point does either FEMA or the Department of Treasury turn this over to a debt collector, or is this all done by the government?

Thank you. Again, I want to thank you all for being here.

If we don't act, the world's largest markets will continue to impose on our innovators their own rules for private e-protection.

We can't continue to allow the collectors of people's information to dictate the level of privacy protection that Americans will get.

the Senate is supposed to vote at 10:30. And based on Senate time, we don't know if that means 10:30, 10:45, 11, whatever.

Thank you both for joining us today.
