<p>WASHINGTON – An anti-predatory lending measure designed to replace an earlier suspended law to curb mortgage lending scams won a first vote by the D.C. Council. A second required vote will take place later this month. An earlier predatory lending measure was passed in December 2000, but it was suspended a year later when some lenders pulled out of the market claiming the law was unfair and too tough.
