Washington, D.C. – Today Congressman Bill Foster released the following statement after being sworn in as the U.S. Representative for Illinois’ 11th Congressional District:
“Today I was honored to be sworn in to represent Illinois’ 11th Congressional District.
Foster served on the committee during the 110th and 111th Congresses, and participated in the creation of several important reforms in the financial services and housing sectors, most notably the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Returning to the committee will provide Foster with an opportunity to ensure the effective implementation of these reforms, and to advocate for the needs of his constituents as the committee considers financial service and housing related proposals that emerge as a result of the ongoing "fiscal cliff" negotiations.
