I do believe the next expansion and flexibility of Pell should be for high quality, short-term education, and training programs.

Our community colleges are often really flexible.

I have long been a champion of expanding Pell Grant to include high quality short-term education and training programs.

I think to the extent that WIOA can be leveraged to create more of those paid work opportunities for young people...

I really celebrate work that we've done in the last couple years to do an Infrastructure bill.

My innate sense of fairness makes me add an addendum to the comment that I last made about insurance rates not being purely actuarial in nature.

I think we often assume that rates charged homeowners by homeowners insurance is based upon some rational algorithm using actuarial data, but that is not always true.

My legal career, the highlight of it was a lawsuit that I brought against the Nationwide Insurance Company for redlining minority neighborhoods all of the United States in 1998.

If I could also respond to Mr. Mulready on the point about regulators sort of looking at and reshaping agencies is not something that we need to look at.

One of the things about your testimony that's important is, you know, I'm a senior citizen now.

This is a hearing that is about how abortion bans have created a health care nightmare.

For the first time in my life, I felt like an endangered species. No one should be made to feel that way.

I think it's just outrageous that we're making people do that.

I think we need a national protection. I have a bipartisan bill that would protect both Griswold and Roe and restore to where we are, pre-Dobbs.

I think the Dobbs decision was a disaster, both in terms of the human consequences of it, but also the radical nature of undoing not just 50 years of Roe v. Wade, but a hundred years of 14th Amendment precedent.

Virginia has basically done that, and that has put Virginia in an unusual position because we're the last state in the South that really still provides women and all the rights that Roe guaranteed to them for half a century.
