Csp csp cspspan. Or cspan. Org. Next, a look at hacking attempts by russia which may have targeted as many as 21 u. S. States. We heard yesterday from the person in charge of Cyber Security for the Homeland Security department janet manfra and other intelligence officials. From capitol hill this is a little over three hours. Hearing is in order. Today the committee convenes the sixth open hearing of 2017 to further examine russias interference in the election.

Preferred stock Purchase Agreements were entered into with treasury, that suspended the capital of fannie and freddie. If we were building up capital i understand exactly what youre saying. But those two criteriaen dont apply anymore because they are in conservatorship. Every dime is going to the taxpayers if theres a profit. Theres statutory language here that requires an end to the allocation. I think its very straightforward. But ill close with this. Today, i along with many of my republican colleagues will reintroduce the payback the taxpayers act.
