CONCLUSION The Sweep Amendment is an unprecedented example of agency overreach. In an effort to implement the Administration’s desire to wind down the Companies, Treasury ignored the expiration of its statutory authority and FHFA shed its mandate to “preserve and conserve” the Companies’ assets. The agencies’ factually unsupportable post hoc rationalizations only illustrate the total disregard for their statutory mandates and the absence of reasoned decisionmaking leading up to the Sweep Amendment. This Court should vacate the illegal and arbitrary Sweep Amendment
