                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the priorities of our Nation should include providing 
        access to affordable housing that is safe, clean, and healthy 
        and expanding homeownership opportunities; and
            (2) these goals should be pursued through policies that--
                    (A) promote the ability of the private sector to 
                produce affordable housing without excessive government 
                regulation;
                    (B) encourage tax incentives, such as the mortgage 
                interest deduction, at all levels of government; and
                    (C) facilitate the availability of capital for 
                homeownership and housing production, including by 
                continuing the essential roles carried out by the 
                Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home 
                Loan Mortgage Corporation, and the Federal Home Loan 
                Banks.

            Passed the House of Representatives July 20, 1998.

            Attest:

                                                                 Clerk.
