In this episode, we sit down with Chairman Atkins to discuss how to make initial public offering markets great again and how we can keep countries like China honest when trading with the U.S.

I'm Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley with Georgia Howe.

This is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.

Joining us now is Chairman Paul Atkins.

Chairman, first of all, thank you so much for joining us.

Now, you just gave this major speech before the New York Stock Exchange.

You took aim at the previous administration's regulations in particular.

You said they were used politically.

How has that affected things?

Not a good sign.

You said during your speech that the path to public ownership has become narrower and costlier.

How do we reverse that?

How do we get back to broader and more affordable?

Are you talking about ESGs there?

That's something that we've reported on in the past.
