AEI Event: Eliminating Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac without legislation

Hosted by the American Enterprise Institute.

A panel of housing finance experts met at AEI last Tuesday to discuss how the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could be eliminated without legislation.  Moderated by R Street’s Alex J. Pollock, the panelists detailed the distortions of the current housing finance system dominated by Fannie and Freddie, and proposed a reform plan that protects homebuyers and taxpayers and does not require Congress to act.
