I know the gentleman refers to what is referred to as a mobile home, but this amendment is far broader than just mobile home. In fact, manufactured homes these days, a combination of prefabricated homes in a number of different styles, are increasingly attractive, and I know the gentleman from Indiana, my friend, Mr. Roemer, would be quick to suggest to me that manufactured homes are not just mobile homes as well as other Members. I think this is a good amendment. I appreciate the gentleman's cooperation, working with both me personally and our staff. I am happy to accept and support this amendment.
