Tony Monetti: Lower corporate tax rates where possible

I will fight for the Middle Class and value our workers who are the backbone of our country. They deserve fair pay and less taxes. The federal government should encourage job training programs, invest in technology to increase our competitive edge, and stimulate technological innovation. Finally, we must reform our tax structure to reflect a fair distribution of the load by reducing entitlements, lowering corporate tax rates where possible, and re-thinking our current income tax base.

Josh Hawley: Went after big mortgage companies for improper loans

AG Josh Hawley, along with AG's from 48 states reached a $45MM settlement with mortgage lender and servicer PHH Mortgage Corporation. The settlement resolves allegations that PHH improperly serviced mortgage loans from 2009 through 2012. "Home ownership is at the center of the American dream, and my Office will take action against companies whose illegal business practices would frustrate that dream," Hawley said. "This settlement holds PHH to account for its improper loan servicing practices."
