Walter Jones wants to amend the Fair Debt Collections Practices act to favor the Banks, the bill sought to change the definition of Lawyers and their firms so that lawyers not called debt collectors. This proposed change does not help homeowners because in addition debt collectors as it is are lawyers who sometimes buy debt and then turn to collect it. This bill is a sham and the Representative may be working for the Banks on this one. see link for details
