I will be very disappointed if this Congress fails to do much more than is contemplated right now in addressing these problems.
A difficult and certainly challenging one, particularly in this political climate.

my feeling has been over the years that the Department of Justice really has failed to be as rigorous or vigorous as it should be in enforcing antitrust laws
Let me begin by thanking Mr. Milch for your endorsement of the bill that I have introduced that Senator Klobuchar mentioned, the next generation wireless bill, and hope to be working with you in light of your endorsement on it, because I…
when you come to the Department of Justice, the companies bear a burden of proof because of the market concentration that exists
And the reasons that those documents are not available to the Committee would be the proprietary information that they include or--as now a private antitrust lawyer, maybe you could explain that.
My time has expired, but I want to thank really all the witnesses for addressing these questions so well.
