Tim Johnson: “The Federal Home Loan Banks play a critical role in our Nation's housing finance and community lending system.”

I share DoD's concern about service members falling into a cycle of debt whether through inappropriate use of credit cards, payday loans, or other forms of credit.

I return to work today to this great body with a renewed spirit and a sharper focus.

This Senator's condition could have huge political ramifications here in Washington.

I believe Congress and DoD must work together to improve the financial literacy of our service members and crack down on abusive and truly predatory practices by any lender.
