I think we should have a little clearer definition of what constitutes materiality in the context of these cyber breaches.

Regulatory bodies should not be using their authority to try to assert the personal opinions of the members.

I also want to applaud you for making sure that the Housing Trust Fund remains stable.

There is no one thing to address this issue, and even with the measures that have been taken, including your provision of funds to the Housing Trust Fund, we have actually seen an increase in--let me put it this way: a reduction in the…

Close to 70 percent, 68 percent to be precise, of the payments that are received come from Medicaid.

I asked for an impact of the proposed administration Medicaid cuts, and the response I have... didn't even mention Medicaid.

So clearly cuts to the Medicaid program would have a harmful impact on providing healthcare through the Indian Health Service, right?

And I'm very proud of the fact that the Indian Health Service is based in Rockville, Maryland, and I look forward to continuing to work with you.

You are 100 percent committed to getting this program to completion and fulfilling the mission.

I hope the independent review gets to the bottom of that.

If you could talk about why the Wallops Flight Facility is an important asset for NASA.

I will probably submit for the record--there are a number of other programs.

I do want to also underscore, I think, the importance of sending the message that we will focus on real science not political science, including when it comes to recognizing that climate change is being driven primarily by carbon emissions…

I think the employees at NASA appreciated the town hall meeting where you brought people together and committed to focusing on the mission.

I appreciate your enthusiasm and energy about the NASA mission, which is a great American success story and a success story for the world.

Renewing my request following your earlier testimony before the Senate Banking Committee on January 30, please provide the distributional analysis performed by the Treasury Department's Office of Tax Analysis regarding the size of the…

I think the American people are due whatever work product came out of an analysis of a tax bill.

And as I understand what you are saying, the Treasury has not done that detailed estimate with respect to the debt...

Here is the issue. Feeling is one thing; analysis is another. Would you agree?

We have a full analysis that was recently presented to the Congress from the Congressional Budget Office that indicates that the debt would increase by close to $2 trillion over the next 10 years.

The reality is that when the Joint Committee on Taxation does an analysis, they provide a document that shows how they got to their answer.

The tax bill that we just passed would pay for itself, meaning that it would not add to the debt.

The President may not unilaterally change sanctions in place against a Chinese telecommunications company unless he certifies that the company has been in compliance with U.S. law for more than a year and that they are fully cooperating…

Is there a way that you can step up--especially in the case of Equifax, where you have a 5-year agreement?

Will you work with Senator Klobuchar and I and others to pass legislation to just put an end to this practice?
