CUNA engaged with regulatory relief on House floor

by America's Credit Unions

CUNA is engaged with House consideration of a regulatory relief bill, Congressional discussions for funding the federal government and hearings in both chambers of Congress this week.

The House is expected to consider the Mortgage Choice Act (H.R. 1453), which would remove certain items from the definition of “points and fees” in a mortgage loan, designed to give consumers and lenders greater flexibility.

CUNA has supported the bill in past Congresses and wrote to House leadership Monday urging them to vote in favor of H.R. 1153.

Federal government funding is set to expire Thursday at midnight, and Congress is expected to vote early this week on another continuing resolution to fund the government to a date in March.
