Mr. Speaker, I thank my friend and colleague, Ranking Member Green, for his good work on this bill. H.R. 3716 will ensure that if we have another banking emergency, as we did 2 years ago with several regional banks, and regulators respond by using systemic risk tools, that Congress and the American people promptly receive detailed information from GAO and others on what went wrong and what should be done to promptly fix it. This bill is supported by Americans for Financial Reform and Public Citizen. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
