- Sb 94 Threatens The Rights Of Citizens
By: Sean Rutledge | - The people behind SB 94 claim that it protects Americans who are working hard to achieve the American dream.

Unless it is stopped, this bill will force ordinary citizens to represent themselves during the complex foreclosure process. The result: more foreclosures and more homeless Americans.
Supporters of the bill claim that Obam ...
