Dear Member,
We want to thank you for your support of REBNY's opposition to the Federal Housing Finance Agency's Flip Tax proposal.
Through the use of REBNY's Action Center, 629 members sent emails to FHFA and federal elected officials on the issue. As a result of your efforts, more than a quarter of all the comments HFHA received came through the REBNY Action Center.
We also want to let you know that we reached out to Congressman Anthony D. Weiner who sent a letter to FHFA to express his concern. In addition, he enlisted the support of the New York City Congressional Delegation, Gary L. Ackerman, Yvette D. Clarke, Joseph Crowley, Eliot L. Engel, Carolyn B. Maloney, Michael E. McMahon, Gregory W. Meeks, Jerrold L. Nadler, Charles B. Rangel, Jose E. Serrano, Edolphus Towns and Nydia M. Velazquez who also signed the letter. A copy of this letter is attached.
We will keep you informed about the outcome of our efforts.
Cordially,
Steven Spinola
