we have a responsibility to taxpayers to not pay $750 for a pill that should actually cost a dollar

We would request there be some directive given to bank examiners in the area of cash flow lending vs. equity and collateral based lending.

Chairman Pat Toomey and Senator Joe Donnelly have introduced legislation which would allow a highly rated bank to be examined on an 18-month cycle.

I think legislation is still the only way to achieve that sense of certainty.

the suicide rate among our military servicemembers and veterans is not just a tragedy; it is a crisis.

Assuming we keep intact our 53-year record of passing the NDAA, this legislation will become law by year's end, but only for military personnel and their families, not for veterans.

I have been to NSWC Crane in Indiana on several occasions and have witnessed the efforts on trusted electronics/high reliability hardware being accomplished there.
