House Republicans’ proposed budget for next year would see Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac wound down as part of an effort to “end corporate welfare” in the housing sector. The GOP’s 91-page “Path to Prosperity” proposal for Fiscal Year 2014 gives scant mention to the two GSEs – less than two full paragraphs. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-WI, the proposal’s author, seeks to “drastically decrease” Fannie’s and Freddie’s market dominance by gradually ending their government guarantees and taxpayer subsidies.
