I think Dodd-Frank has led to a stronger and more resilient financial system.

Dodd-Frank, notwithstanding its intentions to constrain 13(3), did not hit the mark.

I will take 'yes' for an answer, and we will certainly issue those invitations.

I hope the Board of Governors will consider its slow and cautious approach to raising interest rates.

We in Congress would be grossly negligent if we did not engage in greater oversight of the Federal Reserve System.

The Fed's refusal to cooperate in a congressional investigation threatens both its reputation and its credibility.

If these are preliminary suggestions and not rules [by the FSB] why is it that the FSB found it necessary to grant exemptions, specifically to the Chinese?

I found the comments to be outrageous. I know that the ranking member has very good vision. I did not know she could look into the hearts of her colleagues.

I am saddened that we have to hold this hearing, that so much time has passed and so little has been done.

It is outrageous, and I think frankly that a consistent pattern has happened where the Minority of this committee wishes to turn a blind eye when we see discrimination that happens in government.

Although there are other Members in the queue, they will not be recognized today.

It is essential to restoring market discipline and achieving financial stability to shrink this Federal safety net.

I think if this committee has a markup, we will devise a bill that has majority support, perhaps taking into consideration the comments of the gentleman from Pennsylvania, that we have restrictions on not allowing Ex-Im Bank to operate in…

I am not aware of any bill that is supported by a majority of the House, much less a majority of this committee.

And I have to think, why is it that the banks aren't making those loans?

Unfortunately for the folks at Ex-Im, I have come to the conclusion that the Export-Import Bank is beyond broken, and that it is time for the Bank's charter to expire.

Yet few, if any, Democrats support a fairer, flatter tax system, much less reducing our corporate tax rate, the highest in the industrialized world.

If my Democrat friends are so concerned about trade, why are so many of them opposing trade promotion authority (TPA)?

Where was your concern for jobs when your party voted against the Keystone Pipeline and the 42,000 jobs the State Department says are connected to it?

Where was your concern for jobs when you voted for ObamaCare, which according to the Congressional Budget Office is going to lead to 2.5 million fewer jobs in our economy?

I certainly respect the arguments of those who support H.R. 597, and I look forward to continuing our debate.

Boehner says he would support U.S. Ex-Im Bank closure.

I don't recall a hearing where I have ever been thanked so often by so many Members on the other side of the aisle.

We are squeezing out the new entrants to the market.

It is not an exaggeration to say that every single week, we hear from another financial institution that is having trouble meeting the needs of their customers.
