But I can tell you that if anybody is scratching their head at the kitchen table as to how I am going to make next month's payment or tomorrow's payment, if anyone is confused, they're not confused about a procedure that is going to allow this bill to move forward to give them help and not a hand out. They are going to be ready to take advantage of these constructive, financial, and fiscally sound, paid-for vehicles which they can utilize to rebuild their local communities, both rural and urban. That's what America is all about. That's what this debate will be about today. And in conclusion, I would say adding to a grand and great Transportation-HUD bill, one of the greatest ones that will provide for massive mobility and housing in this Nation, that's what Americans are looking for, for us to stand up and be counted and move this Nation forward. I thank the gentleman for the time. I ask that you vote for the rule and this bill.
