"Well, thank you so much, Chairman Nelson and Ranking Member Wicker. It really is a pleasure and truly an honor to be asked to testify before this important subcommittee."

"The time for action is now; we cannot afford to wait."

"We crafted the RESTORE Act, I think it was, if I can say, it was masterful, the way we tried to balance."
