Somehow we have got to figure out a better way, because at the most important time in this person's life, when they are crying out for help, it should be a simple, straight-forward pathway to access that help.

I appreciate the fact that you have the Agricultural Advisory Committee up and running. Thank you for that.

I will continue to push this legislation, but many of its provisions are things that HUD has the flexibility to implement on its own.

I just hope we are not over-engineering something here.
