Hensarling: Senators Should Look Out for Interests of Taxpayers and Confirm Scott Garrett
Washington,
November 1, 2017
House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) issued the following statement about today’s Senate committee hearing on the nomination of Scott Garrett to be President of the Export-Import Bank: “The Export-Import Bank is a deeply troubled government agency connected to cases of fraud, bribery and abuse. Scott Garrett is a true reformer who will steer the Bank in a much-needed new direction. Instead of bowing down to pressure from inside-the-Beltway special interest groups, senators should be looking out for the interests of hardworking taxpayers. President Trump was right to nominate Scott Garrett, a principled leader who will put an end to the Bank’s well-documented management failures.” |
