The SEC is very much implementing the priorities that I and my Democratic colleagues championed when we were in charge.
If I can say, breaking the law and not liking the law are different than lack of clarity.
I think that the Congress' wisdom was to have an agency to oversee disclosure-based markets where issuers are asking the public to buy and sell their securities.
I really strongly believe in our constitutional system do it by the law, and how the courts interpret the law.
