Republicans will continue to stand with those investors saving for retirement.

Americans are waking up to this Administration's assault on their retirement accounts.

It cannot be ignored that that area is rising in its importance.

I have been seeing that this is not just a strategic area, valuable and ripe with valuable commodities.

This would be a positive, positive thing to have for NATO.

I just want to publicly, again, State my support of that.

Last December, Congressman Gottheimer and I sent Chair Gensler a bipartisan letter on the SEC's market structure proposal.

I am concerned that you have just made the SEC legally vulnerable to challenges in court.

I joined Congress in 2011. Would you please stop stalling?

I want to publicly, again, State my support of that.

You are aware that previously, the Commission and the SEC Chair did not have to review or vote on every single document released, but rather gave blanket authority...

Are you aware that your staff has informed committee staff that it will take 10 weeks to review an initial tranche of documents that are responsive to a single question?

Just because an agency is run and directed by Democrats appointed by the Biden Administration, that doesn't automatically mean they are doing a wonderful job.

I find it unprofessional and disingenuous that this Administration would have a Chair of the SEC meet with a man...

Are you aware that to date, 80 percent of the documents in response to our climate request are publicly available?

Do you think it is responsive or a productive use of anyone's time to print public complaints in your own enforcement manual?

Are you familiar with the production your team made at the briefing on March 15th?

So, am I now supposed to send all of our SEC inquiries to the Department of Justice?

In your professional opinion, do you think a briefing about how the SEC and the Justice Department work together is sufficiently responsive to our request for records and communications?

Do you know what date you started that process?

Some might suspect that the SEC is using your congressional oversight experience as a weapon to block us at every turn.

It seems like you and the rest of the SEC staff are well-versed in congressional oversight and responsibilities are very well-equipped.

Let's try not to micromanage an agency that is designed to be the cop on the beat.

If my dear colleagues had a sincere desire to properly manage, we would have invited the head of the SEC here today; he is the person who is best capable.

Micromanagement run amok by House Republicans is putting at risk the SEC's ability to regulate the likes of FTX and other bad actors who destroy investors' dreams with ignoble schemes.
