I didn't hear an answer there. But the point is people deserve equal protection during a grace period in the courts if they acted in good faith. The key here is good faith. It is written right into the bill. They deserve the same protections in court if they act in good faith that they deserve from administrative action from the regulators. They deserve the same help and remediation to get their deficits corrected as opposed to punitive action. The problem is, without that provision--and let me add this is a temporary provision until February 1, 2016. The good faith protections don't even last past February 1. It is the same protection for the same time period in the courts as from administrative action. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. Barr).
