Every one of them is telling us that climate change is here, and its effects are going to get profoundly worse if we fail to curtail our heat-trapping emissions sharply.

I am finding myself deeply disturbed by the cherry-picking of data and the misrepresentation of climate signs that I have heard here today.

Wall Street destroyed our economy, costing families their jobs and their homes and their savings--and then came roaring back, while families limped along.

In 2019, you changed the rules so that the 13 banks with $250 billion to $700 billion in assets could submit full living wills only once every 6 years instead of every year.

It is the job of the Federal Reserve... to make sure that banks remain strong and that taxpayers will never be called on again for a bailout.
