House Agriculture Committee Reviews CFTC Agenda

Washington, D.C. – Today, the House Agriculture Committee held a hearing to review the upcoming agenda for the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. After the hearing, Chairman K. Michael Conaway (TX-11) made the following remarks:

“It was clear in today’s hearing that just because the Dodd-Frank rules are written doesn’t mean regulators are done with their work. Chairman Giancarlo did a thorough job explaining how he’s trying to tackle an important review of the existing rules, and improve international coordination and domestic harmonization between swaps regulators. I look forward to seeing how his hard work will pay off."
