Q You said you'd like Congress to accept the White House's request for briefings. But, I mean, what's the order of things here? Because Congressman Adam Putnam, a Republican, was demanding an envoy from the Bush administration.

MS. PERINO: I was talking specifically about the bipartisan meeting that Hank Paulson called for Monday evening -- I think it was Monday evening -- in which many members of the House and Senate came from both sides of the aisle, but Speaker Pelosi declined to attend. I'm always for more and better communication between the White House and the press, the White House and Congress, and the White House and the public. So we'll continue to try to reach out and do more. I don't know specifically what Treasury Department has in terms of congressional interactions today, but we could look into it for you.
