"Finally, my third priority is to prepare Freddie Mac for a potential end to conservatorship.

- "The Temporary GSE QM loan category—also known as the GSE Patch—is scheduled to expire when the GSEs exit conservatorship or on January 10, 2021, whichever comes first." I feel like a lot of news articles left this part out.
