Marcia Fudge: “It is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever heard.”

We believe that we are today 1.5 million homes short--housing units short of where we should be.

We estimate that just from the reduction in the mortgage insurance premium, we are going to help 850,000 people over the next year.

It is difficult to run a government on grants.

We need a permit and authorization like FEMA does so we can go in immediately and start to help people.
