WATCH: Chairman @RepFrenchHill deliver his closing remarks in support of the TRIA Program Reauthorization Act of 2026:
"Everybody in the back of their mind on this House floor in the coming weeks will be thinking about another anniversary, one that we're not celebrating with fireworks or bands or parades, and that sadly is the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks on New York and our country at large. And it makes us sad, and we reflect on those whom we lost, the claims that we're still paying, and the families that are still mourning. And this bill is an important reminder that we have an obligation to our country to do things right, to be thinking about the future, to be thinking about our nation's economic growth, prosperity, and the safety of the American people."

Joined my friend and colleague @RepCleaver on @CNN to discuss our historic housing bill now that it's passed Congress.
For too long, hardworking Americans have been priced out of the housing market. Our bill helps make the dream of homeownership a reality again.

WATCH: Chairman @RepFrenchHill joined @repcleaver on @AmericaNewsroom to discuss the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act:
“As this bill’s implemented, you’ll see more homes being constructed. Those homes will have less bureaucracy and red tape associated with them. Therefore, the cost per square foot will be lower and that will help the supply side. And when you have more supply, what do you have? You have better affordability and more choice for our families.”

ICYMI: @HouseCommerce, @FinancialCmte and @Judiciary_GOP are urging the EU to reverse their expensive new rules that will cost American businesses billions of dollars a year.
These extreme regulations significantly disadvantage American businesses operating in Europe and should be scrapped.

Working across the aisle with @RepCleaver, we delivered the most significant rural housing reform in a generation. This wasn’t a Washington-driven solution, it was built from the ground up by Iowans.
I look forward to the President signing it into law.

Housing affordability is one of the defining challenges of our time, and I’ve been at the forefront of efforts to pass a bipartisan housing package.
With an 8 million unit shortage and mortgage rates at a 30-year high, we need real action. Homeownership shouldn’t be out of reach for hardworking families, I look forward to this bill being signed into law.

The INVEST Act is vital legislation that the Senate should take up and pass. It would increase investment access for Americans, increase the ability for private companies to go and stay public, and strengthen our capital markets. Watch my full exchange below:
WATCH: @RepFrankLucas questions witnesses on why it’s important to get the INVEST Act over the finish line, to which Mr. Quaadman replies:
"The INVEST Act has, you know, several different components to it, but one, obviously, it deals with a lot of the issues that will allow for growing public capital market. But more importantly, it also provides for different investor opportunities as well.”

WATCH: Chairman @RepFrenchHill on the CLARITY ACT:
“We need to find a way to get this forward. I think pro-innovation Democrats need to unite with Republicans in the Senate and get this bill across the Senate floor so that we can honor our commitment that we made last year that we want the U.S. to have a clear framework for digital assets… the innovation is ongoing and we want it to be done here in America and we want American financial services firms leading it.”

Today in the @FinancialCmte, I questioned witnesses on how passive investing is changing our capital markets.
Active investors play an important role in price discovery and helping companies access public markets.
We need strong markets that work for everyday investors and growing businesses.
WATCH: @RepTroyDowning questions witnesses on active versus passive fund costs, to which Mr. Ptak replies:
“Yes, indeed, we have seen the cost of active funds come down. That's for a few reasons. One is, so if you're looking at something like an asset-weighted average expense ratio for active funds, I think as of the end of last year, it was 0.57%. I think that's about 30 basis points or so lower than it was ten years ago. And that's the product of two things. Fund managers have been lowering their fees, and investors have been responding by directing monies towards cheaper active funds. And so that's brought that asset-weighted average expense ratio lower.”

WATCH: @ZachNunn on expanding access to investment opportunities:
“I hear consistently from Iowans that they don't want special treatment, but they do want access to the same opportunities as those on the East and West Coast. Whether it's access to markets, having the information they need to make the best decisions for their families, they have earned a level playing field here. And when markets are open to the heartland, Iowa families can invest, build wealth, and save for a secure retirement on their own terms.”

WATCH: @RepStutzman on active and passive investing:
“One of the top priorities of this Subcommittee, as well as President Trump's SEC, has been to make IPOs great again. And we have, of course, we saw an IPO within the last couple of weeks that, of course, was incredible. I think it still shows that great innovation, great leadership, companies that have a vision for the future, again, will attract a lot of capital into it.”

WATCH: @RepBryanSteil questions witnesses on how to mitigate risks associated with tokenization, to which Mr. Quaadman replies:
“First off, you know, I think the leadership of Hester Peirce, Commissioner of the SEC, has been very important here and recognizing that tokens are also securities. I think we should also recognize, though, that a lot of activity in tokenization with U.S. Securities is actually happening in Europe. So I think we have to make sure that we're putting a rule structure in place to deal with that.”

WATCH: @RepGarbarino on the success of America's markets:
“The United States remains the world's leading destination for investment, supported by deep and liquid capital markets, strong investor protections, transparent disclosures, and a long history of innovation and capital formation. Those strengths have helped American businesses access capital, fuel economic growth, and create investment opportunities for millions of retirement savers and individual investors.”
