It is important not just to call them out, not just to impose punitive measures, but to work--whatever the problems are, to work them out and to work them out cooperatively.

Is a travel ban--should we see it just as a punitive measure designed to single out these countries and somehow punish them?

I am asking about the expanded travel ban, which now has reached large proportions, affecting, by our calculation, about 300 million people.

A shared responsibility that we need to figure out how to assert sooner rather than later.

The fiscal situation is unsustainable, but interest rates remain low in the United States.

Our deficit is now 4.6 percent GDP. Our debt is 81 percent of GDP. Both our rising.

I am, naturally, acutely aware of the shortfalls in housing funding across virtually all HUD accounts.

The direct funding is important, and we have block grants, of course, like CDBG and HOME.

Thank you for organizing this important hearing on the impact of federal dollars on our states and localities.
