A 2012 survey found that 1 in 5 physicians encountered mismatched information that led to illness or injury at least once during the preceding year.

Free speech is not about violence. It is not about silence.

Free speech means more speech.

I think it's dangerous to suppress speech.

My concern is that you were the head of the FHA. It was your responsibility to see to it that standards were set so that these banks did not file false claims, and then as soon as you leave the FHA, you go to a business whose job it is to…

I think that spouting fake science is extremely corrosive to public policy and should be called out in public at every possible opportunity.

The President of the United States is pouring even more gasoline on that fire, attacking our free press as a, quote, 'enemy of the people.'

on September 30, the Children's Health Insurance Program expired. It has now been 25 days since the Congress has put our children's health and well-being on the back burner. My colleagues and I do not think that children's health belongs…

This is the classic revolving door. In fact, it is worse than the classic. It is the revolving door at its worst, and the American people cannot have confidence in our Government so long as the revolving door is spinning like this.

Free speech doesn't mean the speaker is entitled to an audience.

I would just like to ask. I know I am out of time. I would like to ask you to provide the Committee with a list of the clients that your company advised on FHA-related penalties and settlements during the time that you were heading up the…

Wells Fargo creates 3.5 million fake accounts, charging customers fees and ruining credit scores. Equifax lets hackers steal personal information on 145 million Americans, putting nearly 60 percent of American adults at risk of identity…

I think it is right. So I am glad you are holding this hearing today.

Thank you, Mr. President. Tonight we are on the verge of passing a Republican resolution to make it easier for financial institutions to cheat people. Earlier this year, the Consumer Financial Protection Board issued a rule that prohibits…

It really comes down to this: We have heard from veterans groups, from individual veterans, Active-Duty military, and from banks, and the banks are the ones saying: Roll back this rule, and the veterans and Active-Duty military are asking…

It is 2017. Can you explain why wages this low are not illegal?

I do not think most Americans know that this kind of discriminatory treatment is perfectly legal.

I really do not, because they deserve--see, they are people, they are American people.

If you are confirmed, will you make it a top priority to get these rules back on the agenda and get them completed as soon as possible?

Do you believe you have an obligation to complete these unfinished congressional mandates from 2010 before any other discretionary rules or projects?

You know, the SEC was told to write these rules 7 years ago. They are central to the SEC's mission of investor protection.

We passed a law requiring the SEC to write these rules, and we did that because they matter.

The SEC is required to follow the law. And if you believe in the American constitutional system, you should demand that the SEC stop this lawless behavior.

I do not understand how that connects, then, with the rules on discrimination. It sounds a lot like discrimination.

I have to say when you charge differentially, $1,500 or sometimes more, and that can happen because people do not want to reveal very sensitive, personal medical information.
