Remarks Of CFTC Chairman Timothy Massad Before The National Grain And Feed Association 119th Annual Convention

Date 17/03/2015

Thank you for inviting me today, and I thank Gary for that kind introduction. It’s a pleasure to be here. It’s been a while since I have been to San Antonio, but I am not a stranger to this part of the country. I drove in this morning from Austin, where I spent last night. Both my mother and sister live there, and my brother lives in Houston. My family lived in Texas for many years when I was a kid – in Midland, Brownsville and Houston. My father worked in the oil business so we moved around a lot between Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. Eventually as my dad advanced in his career we moved to the Northeast. When my dad retired, my folks moved back to Texas and my siblings gradually migrated back as well. I was the black sheep of the family who stayed in the Northeast, other than some years in the Midwest and abroad. So I hope those of you from this part of the country will give me a little credit for at least having lived here, rather than concluding I’ve got bad judgment for not coming back.
