Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner testified on the U.S. economy and financial stability. Among the topics he addressed were the state of the economy and the operation of the Financial Stability Oversight Council. He also said the U.S. economy had very limited direct exposure to economic problems in Europe, and advocated national standards for mortgage financing.
