Rep. Jim Himes questioned Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent about consumer sentiment and the state of the economy before turning to the administration’s investments and equity stakes in private corporations.

Himes argued that the administration’s approach to government involvement in corporate America moves toward what he described as communism, while Bessent defended the administration’s policies.
