Soldiers and Seamen's Home Funding Bill Proposed by Morgan

Congressman Morgan introduces a bill to create the Soldiers and Seamen's Federal Home-Founding Commission with a 50 million dollar government backing to loan to soldiers at three percent interest. The plan aims for up to ninety percent of home value, with long repayment terms to help honorably discharged soldiers acquire homes and continue a Revolutionary War era policy of aiding veterans. The proposal calls for a government bureau or corporation to run the program, working capital, and bond guarantees to secure the low rate. The page also notes Beaver County’s community notice offering free burial transport for local graves.
