Impact of this legislation but theres no doubt that this is backing off of commitment that this nation has made so that all people in our country can freely participate in home ownership.

What are you doing here again . Once again youre bringing a bill to the floor that has all kinds of repeal of taxes. I dont even want to get into the deal. These are the
