"This hearing of the Committee on Agriculture to examine the MF Global bankruptcy will come to order."

"Dozens of my constituents have been left not only without their property but also without answers about why and how this happened."

"It is critical that this Committee shed light on the circumstances surrounding the bankruptcy, to insert additional facts and information into the public domain."

"This Committee will continue to monitor the investigation into MF Global's actions and will work to ensure that customers receive fair treatment throughout this entire process."
