H.R.1852 Expanding American Homeownership Act of 2007
- wendybucknum : This needs to be solved and hopefully we can help the 6,000 seniors living in coops in Laguna Woods Village, CA.
- Anonymous : 5-7-08 -Is the raising of FHA loan limits (to a possible $416k? national limit) for REVERASE MORTGAGES in this legislation? It was kicked out of the Stimulus Act and added to several other bills. Congress dragging their feet and will soon go on vacation!
Does anyone know the status of this important legislation for seniors? Times are really tough for those of us on fixed incomes and we need those limits raised in order to obtain as much as possible from a reverse mortgage.
Help! ANY info most welcome.

H.R.2634 Jubilee Act for Responsible Lending and Expanded Debt Cancellation of 2008
- Brewerj : This bill typifies what is best about America. While debt-forgiveness is one step, we must treat these countries as partners by working with them to end hunger, expand education, fight disease and create economic growth. Helping these countries get a fresh start is consistent with our values as a country and is in our long-term self interest.
- cmrk3 : This bill will save lives so it deserves full support. The principle of Jubilee is found in the Old Testament where every 50 years all debts were to be cancelled so that all the tribes of Israel would get their inheritance back. It is also echoed by Jesus. It is time for the rich to help the poor instead of taking advantage of the poor. It is time for the Kingdom of God to advance on earth as it is in Heaven.

H.R.3959 H.R.3959
- textdog : that comes from the CBO estimate pdf
- textdog : this bill would phase out federal subsidies for newer homes that cost more than $600,000...._________________________________________________________still: " Any premium
increase implemented as a result of the bill would yield additional receipts to the National
Flood Insurance Program (NFIP); however, CBO estimates that such funds would be spent
to cover the ongoing costs of the program, resulting in no significant net effect on direct
spending. Enacting this legislation would not affect revenues."________________________________________>>>>>>>>>
