A new Nevada law (Assembly Bill 284) has been put into place to protect consumers from being foreclosed upon. It should be a felony under federal law to illegally remove a homeowner from their property. Furthermore a significant fine should be levied against the companies and parties responsible.
The protection of the homeowner is the first step in stabilizing consumer confidence and reenergizing our economy. Nevada's law should be used as a model for the nation and help put an end to this housing crisis.
