U.S. Senator Orrin Hatch spoke at the Milken Institute in May 2010. A senior member of the Senate committees on Finance, the Judiciary and Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, Hatch gave a wide-ranging view of current public-policy debates in Washington. After his talk, Hatch turned to Mike Milken and said, "Thank God for the Milken Institute and what you're doing. You've been a hero of mine for many years. I think if more people like you would get involved, we could bring a better spirit to America...and it's time we do that."
