I think that the Congress needs to work faster because people get frustrated. You wonder why executive action takes place. Executive action takes place when the legislative branch doesn't move to get things accomplished. And so I think we've got to be aggressive. I think we've got to do more. But it's hard. It's hard when you have narrow majorities and a couple people disagree to get things done. (32:13–32:19)
