NationalMortgageNews reports over a year after the Senate Banking Committee voted to send Carol Galante?s confirmation to the full Senate as Commissioner of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Senate voted 69-24 to confirm her appointment Sunday during a special session dealing with the fiscal cliff controversy. As MHProNews reported Dec. 14, 2011, Sen. Jim Demint, (R-SC), leveling charges at Ms. Galante of being short-sighted at a Senate Banking Committee hearing on her nomination, said, ?We need people with a sense of urgency (italics added) about the need to turn things around and reduce our debt and avoid future bailouts.? Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), noting more needs to be done to repair FHA?s financially challenged single-family program, says as the confirmed commissioner Galante can now assemble her own staff and take more aggressive steps. The acting head of FHA since July 2011, she will also serve as a HUD assistant secretary.
