Maloney congratulates FHFA Director Mel Watt on Senate confirmation | 2013-12-10 | 2013 | 2013-12 | Democrat | House | NY | Carolyn Maloney | M000087 | web.archive.org | legacy | WASHINGTON, DC – Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee, and Ranking Member of its Subcommittee on Capital Markets and Government Sponsored Enterprises, issued the following statement on the Senate’s confirmation of Rep. Mel Watt as Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. “The confirmation of Rep. Mel Watt today to head the Federal Housing Finance Agency is a positive step for housing finance reform. Americans seeking to purchase a home, or keep their homes, will soon realize the benefits of Director Watt's leadership. “In his decades-long experience on both the House Financial Services and Judiciary Committees, Rep. Watt was deeply involved in all housing issues as well as curtailing foreclosure abuses. I will miss my colleague's counsel on the Financial Services Committee, yet America has gained a dedicated public servant in a critically important position. “Director Watt will help rebuild our broken housing finance system and restore the stability, accessibility and affordability Americans deserve and expect.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
