Expressing the sense of the Congress that the Department of Housing and

        principles of this Nation; and

        not enforce the Fair Housing Act or any other provision of law 
        in any manner, or take any other action, that in any way 
        compromises, suppresses, or interferes with the exercise by any 
        individual of the right of free speech, the right of free 
        association, or the right to petition the Government for a 
        redress of grievances through the legislative, executive, or 
        judicial process.
