I won't get into if it would have gotten 2/3 in the house and senate but it doesn't change the facts. A republican led house birthed the bill and Democratic President signed it into law. It is what it is. I don't blame the right or left, I blame them both because they are both responsible and both sides played a role in some horrible legislation that led to the worse recession in the history of country.

BTW, the Trent Lott was a Republican Majority leader in the Senate and Newt Gingrich was the speaker of the house. Republicans ran congress the last 3 years of Clinton's presidency. But it's all Clintons fault eh...
In 1995 Bill Clinton loosened housing rules by rewriting the Community Reinvestment Act, which put added pressure on banks to lend in low-income neighborhoods.

Clinton's Housing and Urban Development (HUD) secretary, Andrew Cuomo, Community Reinvestment Act regulators gave banks higher ratings for home loans made in "credit-deprived" areas. Banks were effectively rewarded for throwing out sound underwriting standards and writing loans to those who were at high risk of defaulting. If banks didn't comply with these rules, regulators reined in their ability to expand lending and deposits.

Go ahead. Find the Republicans in this.

You can look this up yourself and fact check me voting records are online.

In the Senate there were 94 yeas, of which 44 were Republicans. There were 4 Nay's all of which were Democrats. There 2 no votes all of which were Republicans. Essentially every republican that voted, voted in favor of this legislation. The record shows 44 out of 46 republicans voted for it in the senate. That's 95% of the Republicans in the senate. Not really worth my time to look for the house voting record I'll leave that to you sir.

I will say I original thought the legislation came later in Clinton's presidency, I was wrong, but the record shows republicans supported this legislation in a big way.

Almost forgot this.... voted on by the Senate September 13, 1994, 05:26 PM signed into law by slick willie September 29th.

How do you veto something that has 94 yeas in the senate? Maybe the house wouldn't have gotten 2/3 but clearly the Senate already had more then 2/3's.
