As we take a look at what we are dealing with at least over the next bit of time, we have some cloud over us right now. They will thin out.

Panel, is going to focus on policy issues, policy issues who gets to come into the country, how, who gets to be naturalized, how, those kinds of issues, state governments, and also policy issues that have to do with the church itself, integration of our catholics. My apologies. Proper integration of catholics into american life. So those kinds of issues were going to focus on today. We hope to have a great discussion about what catholic policy issues are like, what catholics opinion, roles positions in policy debates of today, but we also believe the Historical Context, the history of catholics dealing with these kinds of issues, is also important. That will be provided as well. Im going to introduce our speakers and the order they will appear. Were going to begin with todd scribner, the Outreach Coordinator for the migration and Relief Services at the u. S. Conference of bishops.

Better gratitude to an american who invested in kids like me. I believe in that. [applause] i understand you spent much of the day talking about populism.

Basically by preventing big banks are pushing people around, tricking them on credit cards and mortgages in payday loans. Of those and many people were involved in that fight. You may remember the biggest Financial Institutions were unenthusiastic about the Consumer Agency. How about dead set opposed and were spending more than 1 million per day for more than a order to Block Financial reforms generally and the Consumer Agency in particular. That was the targeted one. Able to fight back. We were able to fight back. Ecause of people like you people across the country who said i am in this fight, too. And because enough people got involved in the fight, we want.

I dont know what they are afraid of. They have 55 votes. This is not the way the senate used to operate. My members that the price of being the majority is that you have to get the minority roots votes to get the bill across the floor. We would look longer days work longer days and weeks using the clock is consensus.

It is time that we refocus that, if you will. [applause] from cs remarks as wages decline, we borrow more. Not just to enhance but maintain a standard of living. Wall street gets bigger and makes more fees. Caps on emphasis on one sector takes wealth away from other parts of the economy. That is why in 2010, during dodd frank, i teamed up with one of my favorite people i serve in the senate with served in the senate with the amendment on the floor got 33 votes. My math tells me that is well less than 51. 33 votes, which was
