September 24, 2009, 12:56am (report abuse)i sincerely hope that this bill passes because our military families have so much to deal with and worry about as it is. it will be wonderful to be able to purchase a home for the first time, recieve that much needed tax credit, and then not have to worry that you have to pay it back because you get orders to to be stationed at another base. this bill is something our military families need. it also provides an extention for those serving overseas to be able to have time to return home and utilize the first time homebuyer tax credit program as well. military members should not have to miss out because they're serving our country. enough sacrifices are already being made by our military memebers when it comes to home and family life...i think they deserve for this bill to pass.

Hope it passes as well.

November 6, 2009, 11:43pm (report abuse)This is a great bill for those who puchased there home military members who saw the low mortagage rates as an opportunity to save money and boost the economy. Having this first-home buyer also made me feel would be an added benefit. When Recieving orders found out would loose itbecause would not be in home long enough to retain the credit. This changes my opinion in th process working for service members. Bravo!!
