"I am very concerned that Congress is on the verge of making it worse, because if Congress gives states a powerful incentive to stay locked down, then that is going to continue to retard the recovery."

"I subscribe to the notion that deficits and debt do matter, because eventually we are going to become a credit risk."

"Everyone here agrees that when a crisis occurs the federal government has to act."
