Barney Frank: “Why are you banning attorneys fees from people who win a lawsuit based on a blatant violation of the establishment…”

I want to respond to Ms. Waggoner who reads the bill--yes, you read the bill; you don't read every other line.

I do guard the station. I hope you're not, Representative Mulvaney, equating a tax exemption with a Federal grant.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac do very good work, and they are not endangering the fiscal health of this country.

They shouldn't lose their tax-exempt status but neither should they be able to go for a Federal grant as they would be under this bill.
