Judging from this article, I don't see how this is any significant advancement over Corker-Warner. Basically, the government is explicitly telling dubious TBTF institutions that they will only be liable for 10% of their failures...the government will carry the rest of the burden.

It would mandate private financiers hold a stake and take at least 10 percent of the first losses on mortgage debt.

The outline from the two senators said they plan to "eliminate affordable housing goals" and instead establish housing-related funds to ensure housing is available for all types of borrowers and renters."
