The point here is not that the House committee with responsibility for oversight of the suspended housing programs failed to inveigh against the suspension, much less insist upon their resumption. Rather, the point is that, with its intimate knowledge of the Acts creating the programs, it did not view the suspension as being beyond the Executive’s power under the statutes. The Committee did not necessarily “acquiesce” in the sense of accepting the suspension as necessary or desirable, but it certainly appears to have accepted its legality.
