Senators’ Shady Mortgages

Senators’ Shady Mortgages



It should come as no surprise that while Americans struggle to stay in their homes, many of the powerful elites who “lead” us in Washington got special deals from the banks that issued their mortgages. Politico.com reached out to all 100 senators to find out whether they got their mortgages from embattled lender Countrywide Financial, and whether they received special terms regardless of who issued the mortgage.


Of course, many senators are wealthy enough to buy one or more homes outright.
And an amazing 33 senators have refused to answer any questions. Click here to
