Senator John Edwards | (September, 2007) For too long, on Capitol Hill and in state
legislatures around the country, the advocate members of AFFIL have
been lone voices for consumer protection. For too long, politicians
have ignored your voices, listening instead to the wishes of lenders
and their lobbyists. Today I am proud to lend my voice in support of
AFFIL’s principles for fairness in lending, and to let you know that
when I am president, I will listen – and together, we will end the
game. Read the full statement. Read More: John Edwards on "Taking on Abusive Lenders and Helping Families Save" Send an email to thank John Edwards for his endorsement |
Governor Bill Richardson
| (September, 2007) Responsibility, justice, and equality. These
are basic American principles that we can all agree to. Yet, too many
in the lending industry have made a living violating these principles.
It’s got to stop. Together we can make sure that these great American values guide the conduct of lending in this country. I
am proud to endorse AFFIL’s Principles of Fairness in Lending. I am
proud to stand with you on behalf of consumers and against predatory
lending. Read more: Governor Bill Richardson Proposes to Fix Foreclosure Crisis Send an email to thank Bill Richardson for his endorsement. |
Senator Chris Dodd, Congressman Dennis Kucinich and Senator Mike Gravel have also endorsed the Principles, but have not provided statements of support.
