"When consumers look at the market today, ... they see more mergers, more consolidations, less choice."

"there is an empty desk where the buck should stop and I think that situation has to be remedied as soon as possible"

"Our legislation would give consumers more choice, on the theory ... when there is true competition, they actually affect market outcomes."
