“A good bit of the dialogue that is occurring today has been an active discussion for a long period of time in the Financial Services Committee--Jeb Hensarling from Dallas, Texas, the chairman of that committee. One of our bright young stars is from Tampa, Florida, and his name is Dennis Ross. And Mr. Ross has heard the debate going on and came down here.

Mr. Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Ross).”
