USDA Home Loans -- it's getting closer but we can all pitch in!

It seems that additional funding for USDA has passed the House and is now in the Senate's hands, and from what I have heard, it's been referred to committee. Typically that's NOT a good thing in a case like this...

Please reach out to your local Senators and let them know how important USDA funding is to your community.

Here is a link to the Senate bill: http://www.scribd.com/doc/30885554/U-S-Senate-S-3266-via-MyGov365-com

If you want to see this passed with or without changes, here is a link that will help you determine who your senators are for your particular state: ttp://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm

Thanks for reading! -- James Wirth
