The Massachusetts Alliance Against Predatory Lending ("MAAPL") has put together an excellent forum on foreclosure issues for the upcoming state primary on September 9th. Interviews with the candidates for Attorney General are available here.
The Attorney General's office has enormous impact on Massachusetts foreclosure law. The AG is responsible for issuing regulations on many of the state's foreclosure and consumer protection laws, and as the Commonwealth's lawyer, is responsible for representing the state in civil lawsuits. Foreclosure issues do not always get front page attention during the election season, and MAAPL's forum gives attention to these important issues.
