Thank you to IN legislators, specifically Linda Rogers & Doug Miller for championing housing issues like the Attainable Homeownership Tax Credit that will help folks like Habitat build more affordable homes for Hoosiers!

“Usury is the only word to describe SB352 that passed the #INLegis Senate Feb. 2. As a leader in a Christian faith-based affordable housing construction and advocacy organization… I am gravely concerned that this will harm many people.” Habitat Indiana. goshennews.com/opinion/reader…

'Worst of all, SB352 protects predatory lenders from prosecution under the Indiana criminal #loansharking statute.

THANK YOU Hamilton County, Indiana Board of Commissioners for approving a Resolution Requesting the Rejection of SB 352 which would 'authorize additional new predatory loan models in the State of Indiana'!

Thank you to Gina from @INCommDev member Habitat Indiana for making the connection between SB 352’s expansion of predatory lending and the damage it will do to housing security. Tell your #INLegis Rep. how YOU feel at (800) 382-9842!

The way to help struggling elderly, veteran, single-parent and minority families financially isn't to give them a loan with a high amount of interest #CostofHome #StoptheDebtTrap southbendtribune.com/story/opinion/…

ICYMI, longtime former state regulator of consumer credit Mark Tarpey writes in IndyStar that SB352 will 'lead to a debt treadmill that customers cannot escape'. The bill narrowly passed the #INLegis Senate and is awaiting a committee assignment and hearing date in the House.

newsandtribune.com/opinion/guest-… | GUEST COLUMN: Bill threatens housing security for vulnerable Hoosiers

“We are extremely disappointed by the Indiana Senate’s passage of SB352. Simply put, the bill expands predatory lending in Indiana without any consideration for financially vulnerable Hoosiers & the families” said HRL member Andy Nielsen of Indiana Community Action Poverty Institute. indianaopportunity.net/hrl-news/2022/…

SB352 fails to pass due to lack of Constitutional Majority, but can come up for another vote as soon as the Senate’s next meeting on Thursday. Keep calling and writing to thank those who voted NO & urge the “yes’s” to reconsider! votervoice.net/mobile/IACED/H… #StopTheDebtTrap #INLegis

Wishing a very happy 97th birthday to President Jimmy Carter who has been such a pillar to our organization! We are so grateful he chooses to continues to invest in us and believe in the Habitat mission!
