Richard Blumenthal actually said...

"the simple fact is that if these rules are not significantly changed, we are going to see years of litigation"

"I will be one of the first in line at the courthouse door if I believe that these rules are inconsistent with the statutes."

"the proposed rules that were issued on May 29, 2014--were unacceptable. Not just unacceptable as a matter of policy, but actually illegal, as contrary to law."

"we need to expedite the process, and to upgrade the fairness, consistency, and transparency, which means changing the process, not the rules."
