lisa: congressman sean casten of illinois, thanks for being with us.e will have more next time to dig in -- more time next time to dig into the infrastructure proposals. there's a sense of a hawkish tilt that is getting more hawkish as we hear rhetoric out of fed members. james bullard of the st. louis federal reserve, not a voting member come about coming out on cnbc and basically saying he expects the first rate hike in late 2022. taylor: that is at least what his dots are showing, as you talk more about dot dispersion coming into this meeting compared to previous meetings. again, the key headline within the bond market, yields are no longer lower. we now have a sort of -- as we look forward to higher yields on the horizon. some of the key statements to me, i was just engrossed in the december 2013 release when ben bernanke was at the fed running the federal reserve there, really talking about that initial paper of the 85 and 45 reducing treasuries and mortgages by $5 billion each to create a $10 billion taper. it short of -- it sort of reminds us of

casten. thank you again. mr. casten: it's my pleasure to yield to my friend, one of the funnier members of congress but heart felt today, mr. carbajal of california. mr. carbajal: thank you. mr. speaker, going back to my days as county supervisor, i fought to make sure the central coast was a leader in clean energy -- in the clean energy economy. i helped get the first large scale solar project in santa barbara county across the finish line and called it a win-win-win. that's because investing in renewables is one of the best investments we can make. it means a healthy planet, clean air, and good-paying jobs. since 2014, the central coast has emerged as a renewable energy powerhouse. we are now home to several major solar farls and soon we could be home of one of the largest battery storage plants in the world. now after years of negotiation, i helped secure an agreement to realize an offshore wind project and the jobs it will create through the central coast. according to a study conducted by a local organizatio

casten of illinois. when we marked these bills up in financial services committee, i pointed out that even though democrats believe these bills are in alignment as they boat address the need for climate related disclosure, they are intentioned with one another. for example, congressman vargas' bill suggested that a disclosure system is sufficient by providing an annual report describing the long-term e.s.g. strategy and e.s.g. related metrics which presumably would include climate risk. on the other hand, congressman casten says that a disclosure should report the same metrics but additionally needs to disclose the social and human impact of a company's actions he, analyze how the company's reputation might be affected by climate, detail the board's oversight, and has a long list of statutory additions. the democrats often say that we need to mandate measuring climate risk because this is science. but deloitte reported that science has not agreed on the methodology for measuring climate risks. and even w

representative kasten-- casten: i take your comments that 21,000 was not perfect. but the core has the same issue. there are these conflicts of interest between groups, especially when we get to interregional connections. i would remind everybody, including my friend mr. crenshaw, that it is comparatively really easy to permit gas pipelines in this country. we have made it chronically difficult to permit transmission . a big part of that is government structure. a big part of that is in the failure to have a single point of control in the projects. i welcome all thoughts on what we might do, legislatively, to move that a little faster than the snails pace it has moved in the last 30 years. i think you and yield back. >> we will reconvene the committee immediately after the second vote. we stand in recess until that time. >> representative gonzalez you are recognized for five minutes. representative gonzalez: thank you to our witnesses and panel. we have found an area with bipartisan agreement with respect to the need to modernize the grid. the how and why is the ch

underwood: on monday, i had the privilege of joining my colleagues, representative bill foster and sean casten and three incredible working mothers from my community to speak about the importance of the expanded tax credit. we heard from these working moms how the child tax credit will deliver much-needed relief for their families after an incredibly difficult year. they will no longer have to worry about how they will afford their mortgage, childcare, and putting food on the table for themselves and their kids. it's estimated that the expanded credit will cut child poverty in half, lifting 5,400 kids in my district out of poverty, and benefitting thousands more. we must sustain this investment in our kids and working families by making the tax credit -- child tax credit permanent, to make sure millions of children have the resources they need for a brighter future. thank you. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from new york seek recognition? >> madam speaker -- mr. morelle: madam speaker, by the direction of the committee on
