My own view is this, that is to say U.S. economic efforts with respect to China should be national security focused.

I am trying to get out what you said, a policy that is statesmanlike in its orientation, drawing on your experience as an economist.

I think that your concept of attacking the national security side of this without damaging the economic growth that comes from the two things is absolutely what we need to do.

I thank the gentleman from California and my friend from Missouri, and I rise in support of this bill, H.R. 2812, the middle market IPO underwriting cost act. I thank Chairman McHenry and Ranking Member Waters for considering these bills…

In 1 week, on June 1, the country and the world is going to witness something that we have never seen before. There will be an office in the United States Treasury, less than a mile from here, in which a group of people will decide: Are we…

Here in Congress, we spend money like we are Democrats, we impose taxes like we are Republicans.

Just say no to crypto and to so-called stablecoins, the biggest oxymoron in the American language.

If you want to be a drug dealer, you need financial privacy. If you want to evade our sanctions laws, you need financial privacy.

If this works, we are not going to have that power anymore.

I want to ensure that we don't lose sight of the impact that these failures have had and can still have on marginalized communities.

The mission is to ask the Treasury to inform Congress about how to keep the preeminence of the dollar-based trading system in the world.

To hear the Majority at the time, it was all their fault.

I have long been concerned by the fact that an awful lot of our capital markets are migrating to private markets.

American conservatism is not so much about ideas, it is, 'a series of irritable mental gestures which seek to resemble ideas.'

I promise you that when something goes wrong under your jurisdiction, you will be sitting back in that seat having done too little, too slowly.

I think we need to think about automatic mechanisms, and that may require statutory change.

The truth is that Silicon Valley Bank was crawling with supervisors and regulators who had been raising the alarm for a long time.

Former and disgraced President Trump said he would do a, 'big number on Dodd-Frank,' and his appointed regulators did just that.

I remain proud of what we did almost 13 years ago with the Dodd-Frank Act.

Had we followed Congress' direction to include contingent capital in the stacks of U.S. large banks, we would have been able to resolve the SVB without hitting the Deposit Insurance Fund.

I hope that we have dispensed with the absurdity that it was Silicon Valley's woke activities that drove this failure.

Since day one of SVB's collapse, committed Democrats have been on the case.

This will require stronger emergency liquidity provisions to banks under attack.

Let me be very, very clear: Silicon Valley Bank collapsed because of management failures and possible regulatory weaknesses, not because there was one Black man on the board.

I am very concerned that we have proposed budget cuts to certain areas at Treasury.
