WASHINGTON, DC, October 8, 2025 – David M. Dworkin, President and CEO of the National Housing Conference (NHC), released the following statement in response to Jonathan McKernan’s confirmation as Under Secretary for Domestic Finance at the United States Department of the Treasury.
“I want to congratulate the U.S. Treasury Department on the confirmation of Jonathan McKernan as Under Secretary for Domestic Finance. McKernan brings an incredibly diverse set of skills and experience to one of the most important economic positions in the Administration. His leadership in bringing together a broad range of stakeholders to inform the Trump Administration’s consideration of the future of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will provide important intellectual capital to ensure that the mortgage finance system, taxpayers, and homebuyers across the country are well served.
