  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

  • FHFA Will Extend Moratoria on Foreclosures, Evictions If Needed
    In classic Greek mythology, a golden apple of discord inscribed "For the fairest" was awarded to Aphrodite, beginning a chain of events that led to the Trojan War. GrayRobinson's newsletter reports on the most recent issues, individuals, and discourse deemed fairest in Washington. September 18, 2020 FHFA will extend moratoria on foreclosures, evictions if needed, Calabria says Appearing before the House Financial Services Committee on Wednesday, Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director Mark Calabria said that if necessary, he will extend the moratoria on foreclosures and evictions for homes and multifamily housing financed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac past December 31. The CARES Act required the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) to offer forbearance to borrowers affected by the pandemic, but provided no funding to offset the costs to the GSEs and to servicers. At the GSEs’ request, the FHFA proposed a new fee on refinancing GSE-backed mortgages to offset CARES Act-related costs; after public outcry, this fee has been postponed to the end of the year. Committee members from both sides of the aisle challenged this proposed fee, but Calabria said it was necessary to preserve the GSEs’ solvency. This week the FHFA held two listening sessions on its proposed capital framework for the GSEs, and Republican Committee members argued for improving the treatment of credit risk transfers (CRTs) in final capital rule. Senate Budget roundtable suggests consensus on vouchers Senate Budget Committee Chairman Mike Enzi (R-WY) held a roundtable on Wednesday to discuss reforms to federal housing assistance programs. Enzi, a longtime advocate of affordable housing as a tool to promote economic growth, said he was “appalled” by how little progress the nation has made in providing affordable housing during his 45-year career in public service.
