"As we look at this issue, we have to be aware of housing shortages generally in rural areas, particularly for families living below the poverty line."

"There is a shortage of workforce housing in rural areas. This is an issue of concern in my district, in my State, and across the United States."

"Achieving fairness in housing entails several dimensions that should be a shared goal."

"I think we all agree--I hope we all agree--that we need the Fair Housing Act."
