You either don't know what God law teaches on this, or you disagree with God.
1. Charging interest on money is usury and is considered theft, biblically. A little bit of study about fractional reserve banking might help you. Try this.
2. In Bible law, under no circumstances whatsoever could you take a man's home from him. Consider what happened to Ahab and Jezebel for trying that.(God condemmed him to die and dogs to lick his blood on the land he took)
3. Even if you don't count usury, the banks are in violation of a host of laws already. They have been found guilty in court of violating some of them. They get a fine which amounts to a slap on the wrist. Two years later they are making record profits again, while the poor widow they stole the house from is destitute. Their executive get million dollar bonuses, and the congressmen that let them off live well and get eternal salaries. There are many place where God shows specific anger at leaders who exploit their people in these ways.
4. The laws proposed don't stop foreclosures at all. It is only a tiny half baked measure to encourage the banks to act more legally. Why on God's green earth you would call that Marxist is way beyond me.

"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws" — Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild 1790 though original sourcing is questionable

"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." Woodrow Wilson The New Freedom 1913

So we speak above a whisper about laws to stifle this conspiracy that a president warned about over a hundred years ago, and you want to call it Marxist to resist. OMG!

"And I sincerely believe, with you, that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies; and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale."
Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, Monticello, 28 May 1816. Ford 11:533

Bank-paper must be suppressed, and the circulating medium must be restored to the nation to whom it belongs
Thomas Jefferson to John Wayles Eppes, Monticello, 24 June 1813. Ford 11:303

a vast accession of strength from their younger recruits, who, having nothing in them of the feelings or principles of '76, now look to a single and splendid government of an aristocracy, founded on banking institutions, and monied incorporations under the guise and cloak of their favored branches of manufactures, commerce and navigation, riding and ruling over the plundered ploughman and beggared yeomanry.
Jefferson to William Branch Giles, December 26, 1825, in Ford, 10:356. Polygraph copy available online from the Library of Congress

Gentlemen! I too have been a close observer of the doings of the Bank of the United States. I have had men watching you for a long time, and am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out, and by the Eternal, (bringing his fist down on the table) I will rout you out!
From the original minutes of the Philadelphia committee of citizens sent to meet with President Jackson (February 1834), according to Andrew Jackson and the Bank of the United States (1928) by Stan V. Henkels
BTW - they attempted to assassinate him in a theater, like they did Linocln later.

Yeah, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson those horrible Marxists opposing illegal bank actions. SERIOUS sarcasm. OMG!

It sounds like you are in favor of Sharia financing then?
