Spencer Bachus: “I do acknowledge that low-income Native Hawaiians living on the Hawaiian homelands, that they are under some restraints…”

“I do acknowledge that low-income Native Hawaiians living on the Hawaiian homelands, that they are under some restraints in building homes and financing those homes; and, because of that, there is support on my side of the aisle for some of these programs, and there are some differences of opinion. So I do acknowledge that for them, because it is on Native Hawaiian lands, it is almost impossible for them to get private financing; and that is at least the basis for some of these programs. And I do believe and I am hopeful that some of the discussions we have heard tonight will enlighten Members on both sides. It is not the intent of the minority to obstruct the passage of this legislation.”
