Congresswoman Dina Titus (D-Nevada) and Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (D-Illinois) co-sponsored an amendment to H.R. 4173, the Consumer Financial Services Bill which would require the CFPA to oversee the reverse mortgage industry to ensure seniors are not exposed to unfair and deceptive practices. The Amendment was passed by a vote of 223-202 late Friday afternoon.
