Mark Warner

One of the things I wanted to talk about is home ownership.

I have been a huge advocate of CDFIs as part of the financial network, and again bipartisan.

This notion that--the notion of the LIFT Act, which we had put out, was to say, you know, if you are a first generation, first time homebuyer within certain income strata and you qualify for a 30-year mortgage...

We all know, you know, racial wealth gap in this country in many ways is due to the failure to have true equality in terms of home ownership.

We have got to make sure the GSEs, because of some of their tax provisions, are now able to access.

I want to move along quickly.

Today, September 11th is the anniversary of one of America's worst days.

I have repeatedly called for repeal of the MVRA.

We do not vote by mail. We do not use drop boxes, and we do not accept votes outside the law, and we do not harvest ballots illegally.

I think it is wonderful. But if you want to see the real stuff, come to Virginia.

We can also embed biases.

You could see AI tools at scale and speed manipulate our history.

I do think there is a unique contribution from South Asia separately.

I want to commend you, Secretary Bunch, for--I think you are doing a great job.

I will go back to my classified hearing.

I stand by my earlier statement. You are doing a good job because that is a pretty darn comprehensive answer.

We do not want to be at the end.

I have watched how you have, you know, taken on this challenge, worked with the community across the region.

Do you agree to inform and fully brief to the fullest extent possible all Members of this Committee of intelligence activities and covert actions, rather than only the Chairman and the Vice Chairman?

I believe very strongly that it is appropriate and responsible to have communications between the intel community and the social media platforms on a voluntary basis focused on foreign malign influence.

Because we and our House counterparts are literally the only eyes and ears the American public has between them and the secrets our government holds.

Thank you for your willingness to serve and we look forward to your testimony and your answers.

For people to deny those facts is a complete disconnect from reality.

I frankly believe, and I think you've raised this, respectfully to some of my other members, I don't think we can do it with solar and wind alone.

If we don't get ahead of climate change it is a national security imperative.
