ALBANY, N.Y. — New Yorkers for Responsible Lending testified yesterday at a New York State Senate Banks Committee hearing yesterday in support of legislation offered by Governor Paterson aimed at addressing New York's foreclosure crisis.

NYRL members from around the state testified that the Governor's bill provides a strong, comprehensive framework that would protect New York homeowners, curb abuses in the subprime market, and help prevent foreclosures. NYRL underscored the urgent need for the Governor and Legislature to pass responsible lending legislation before the end of the current legislative session.
