I think of local and regional engines for economic growth and job creation. I think of choice, innovation and diversity. The dual banking system is a unique strength we have long enjoyed in this country. I think everyone in this room understands that the dual banking system is at a crossroads. The share of banking activity conducted through state banks is dwindling and there is every reason to believe that trend will continue. The issue goes well beyond market share, to fundamental issues about states' ability to enforce laws protecting consumers. I am going to talk today about these trends and about a petition the FDIC received to expand certain preemptions for state banks. I will also discuss a recent public hearing we had at the FDIC on these issues. Since much of this relates to the OCC's 2004 preemption regulation, I will start there.
