H.R. 1106 was a bill intended to slow foreclosures and revive the housing market during the severe economic downturn of 2008 and 2009. It gave bankruptcy judges the ability to modify mortgages on principal residences, allowed the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Agriculture and the Federal Housing Administration to guarantee and insure mortgage loans that are modified in bankruptcy, protected loan servicing companies that engage in loan modifications from civil claims, and made a permanent increase in the level of FDIC deposit insurance. This was a vote on the resolution or “rule” on H.R. 1106, which set the terms for House consideration of the bill, including the amendments that could be offered to it. |
