Mr. Speaker, along with many of this Member's colleagues on the committee, this Member has a long history of initiating and supporting measures which promote homeownership. This bill is another substantial step toward this and other worthy ends. Unfortunately, the other body has yet to act on that legislation.

Homeownership gives an individual or family a sense of pride in themselves, their home, as well as their community. This legislation advances the opportunity for homeownership by Americans across the entire country.
