Speech #1100161451

I understand there are some legitimate concerns about the second rule that we will deal with. But as to this rule. I will say categorically I was the ranking member on the Committee on Financial Services for 4 years. The rule today gives more scope to the minoritys amendments than any rule under this committees jurisdiction when they were in the majority. The gentleman complained about an amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Florida . There is an amendment on the subject of illegal immigrants and their benefits in this bill. There were four such amendments. One was made in order.
