This bill would actually exempt 85 percent of
depository financial institutions and 48 percent of nondepository
lenders. Congress should want to encourage increased access to housing finance
and combat unlawful practices that can prey on vulnerable home buyers
or lead to systemic risk which leads to people coming to this town
demanding another Republican taxpayer bailout. This rule also considers debate for H.R. 3326, the World Bank
Accountability Act--another issue that does not relate to the
expiration of government funding at the end of the week, does not
relate to the illegal aliens that the Republicans are creating every
day, and does not relate to the Children's Health Insurance Program
expiring. What it does is it places a restriction on funding to the World Bank
International Development Association--again, something I am not
hearing from my constituents on, that they are not sending me to
Washington and demanding that I take action on--and try to get them to
reform to improve their management accountability and fight extremism,
which I am sure is fine. It is true that, of course, they probably need
to improve accountability and oversight, and Congress can have this
discussion, but here we are, backs to the wall, the government is about
to close, DREAMers are facing deportation, children are going without
healthcare, and, yes, of course, World Bank accountability, great,
let's discuss it, but can't we do it next week after we get through
this? In fact, I believe the Republicans are sending us all on vacation
next week. I think most Americans wish they had 10 days off at the end
of January.
