Television broadcast. In the last hour, south sudans president has signed a peace deal with rebels, despite serious reservations to end nearly two years of civil war. It was a drawnout process as African Leaders gathered in the capitol of south sudan, juba, to witness this ceremony. We were told it would happen and it did happen that is the president signing the deal about a half hour, 40 minutes ago. Our reporter has all of the details now on the phone. Ana, tell us more. Reporter yes, as you say the president has signed this peace deal, which would seem like a major break through. But unfortunately when he was addressing the audience earlier, he said he did have major reservations about the content of it. [ inaudible ] this isnt the bible, this isnt the quran, these are things that can be revisited. So the implementation then will be interesting, wont it, ana. Because you have one side that signed it, but said i dont want to sign this. So how it gets implemented will be interesting.
Rejected. So my colleagues and i have been working with a wide variety of stakeholders, including many of you, to simplify things moving forward. Case in point is the qualified Residential Mortgage rule. As all of you know in august, six federal agencies including hud proposed a revised version of qrm to make it equal, qm. This is a direct result of the feedback weve received since the first proposal in 2011. You told us it needed to be refinded, and we listened. Refined, and we listened. Now our rule now some of our critics have called this a dilution of our rule. But as you know, qm itself is a very strong measure, as im sure director cordray will confirm later in the conference. And were confident that this will find the right balance between responsibility and opportunity moving forward. Another example of proper coordination is huds qualified mortgage rule which builds off the qualified mortgage definition set forth in cfpbs final rule. It extends the cfpb patch defining loans tha
The confusion continues. So it is fitting were here today in d. C. So we can be heard loud and clear. We are here to call and policy makers collectively to recognize the collective impact of the rules, regulations, litigation and enforcement action because at the end of the day we are putting the American Dream at risk. My hope is that maybe this time weekend strike a balance together, constructive, and its up policy politics have to make. Workingclass towns, hispanic american africanamericans, for some homebuyers, Single Parents trying to raise the kids who want to own a home, we end up creating a perfectly riskfree safe and sound system and that will be the system for those who need the help the least. Theres no doubt theres conflict and rulemaking. This is hurting the return of private capital. Policymakers quite frankly can give lipservice to the desire to bring back private capital because the actions clearly are working against that return. So im asking one more time for policies

I commend the work of the Police Department here at the los angeles airport. They did a fantastic job yes, they did. Very, very brave officers that ran right into the situation. But at the same token, tsa, they need a Law Enforcement there. My good friend and colleague sitting beside of me would not be looking to the phoenix Police Department to provide the security for his officers. He wants to do that. There needs to be some type of Law Enforcement inside of tsa to provide security at that checkpoint. There are still a very large airport, parking lots, all of those type things that have to be managed in an Airport Operation in which we need the local Law Enforcement and the airport Law Enforcement to handle. But those checkpoints and tsa, it was one of ours that didnt get to go home to his family. I thank you very much, mr. Chairman. I yield back. Thank you very much. Thank the gentlelady apologize for having to depart at this time. Thank you. Thank you for participating many this he
