Together
with other members of the National Association of Consumer
Bankruptcy Attorneys, Mr. Melchionne went to Washington, D.C. to
meet with Congressional leaders to discuss fixes to the disastrous
Bankruptcy law changes enacted in 2005. Staff of the Connecticut
delegation learned about the increases in foreclosures in the state
and the consequences of burdensome document production and the
useless pre-brankruptcy credit counseling which help only 3% of
potential filers. Unlike previous years, reception to discussion of
these problems was warm and the staff of newly elected Chris Murphy
listen intently.
