On the recordMay 9, 1996
in relation to wind standards, that he very articulately discussed on his time that the gentleman from California and I were in Congress before the gentleman from Indiana, and we worked very closely with the industry and very closely with HUD to address that problem, and I think my colleague would find that the manufactured housing industry was very pleased, after going through very rough treatment from HUD, what we were able to accomplish in terms of getting commonsense solutions to that wind standard that they initially promulgated. This consensus committee that we have developed in our bipartisan legislation with HUD will prevent that kind of fiasco from happening again.
