An NPR investigation helped 15,000 veterans hang on to their homes, but some in Congress want to kill the program that made mortgages more affordable.
An NPR investigation revealed that a VA program helped 15,000 veterans avoid foreclosure with more affordable mortgages after a VA error put them at risk. However, some members of Congress are seeking to eliminate the rescue program, raising concerns from veterans and housing advocates who see it as the only way for these veterans to keep their homes. The VA has declined to comment on the proposed legislation.
