ABA Applauds House Passage of Housing for the 21st Century Act

"ABA applauds the House for passing the Housing for the 21st Century Act, which includes measures that enhance housing opportunities across the country as well as several key provisions to help level the regulatory playing field for community banks. These measures provide regulatory and examination relief for smaller banks, incentivize the formation of new banks and increase transparency around the FDIC's resolution authorities. We commend Chairman French Hill, Ranking Member Waters and members of the House Financial Services Committee for their leadership in assembling and advancing this bipartisan legislative package."
