Transcript of President Bill Clinton’s Remarks at a Treasury Event Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the Community Development Financial Institution Fund

First, Secretary Yellen, thank you for inviting me back to the Treasury Department for this very important milestone and for letting my memory wander back over the years.I actually, I just have to say this, I was thrilled when you became Treasury Secretary. And I remember so many of the meetings we had when you were a member of, and then the chairman, of the Council of Economic Advisors. And I wouldn’t pass much muster today in the current political environment because I liked it when I had people working for me who disagreed with me. I liked being advised by people who knew more than I did about everything.
