I wish I had time to yield to the gentlewoman to hear that answer. She is talking about megabanks. This is, frankly, just a red herring in this whole thing. Congress has the opportunity to help more Americans realize a portion of the American Dream, not by some grandiose law or decree, but by simply reforming a burdensome regulation.
