Conservatives release blueprint for Trump to 'eliminate' Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac

Conservatives who are pushing for the elimination of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac on Monday gave President Trump a blueprint for phasing out the government-sponsored enterprises by himself.

Analysts with the American Enterprise Institute and other right-of-center think tanks began rolling out a guide for how the Trump administration could “eliminate” Fannie and Freddie over the course of several years without any action from Congress. AEI also plans a conference Tuesday morning to discuss the paper, which could influence GOP lawmakers.
