"I ask that you protect and fund the National Housing Trust Fund in your bipartisan bill."

"These are families who are working and they make too much, in most cases, to qualify for public housing, you know, but they do not make enough to get to be able to afford decent rental housing."

"What you are offering in the Housing Trust Fund is a sense of hope, that we have something that may happen."

"I am here today to ask that you make sure that the least fortunate are included in your legislation."
