“I thank Chairman Hensarling, and I thank the gentleman from California for his amendment and work on this bill. I think this amendment is acceptable, and adopting it will still allow the bill to provide some regulatory relief to our small community banks and credit unions, and it will also assist in helping our low- income borrowers in districts like mine, NY-22, where we have lost so many community banks. I think that this will help encourage lending and allow small community banks to again lend to people who are in lower income levels. I urge my colleagues to adopt the amendment, and I thank the gentleman again from California (Mr. Sherman), for his hard work on the bill and for this bipartisan effort. I yield back the balance of my time.”
