Patrick McHenry actually said...

"I want to ensure that the Vian family of Rowlett keeps their credit cards."

"I oppose this legislation as I have utilized my credit cards to pay for some costly oral surgery. I do not want to get penalized by this legislation for making my payments on time."

"Make no mistake about it, if this bill passes, it is going to be a lot harder for people to access the credit they need to pay their bills, cover their medical emergencies, or finance a large purchase..."

"My position on this bill is very straightforward. All groups seeking federal acknowledgement as Indian tribes should go through the administrative process at the Department of the Interior."
