The Financial CHOICE Act



Urgent Action Needed re the 10 The Financial CHOICE Act
Click on the above link from the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. The Society is urging us to contact our Congressperson in the House of Representatives requesting that they vote against The Financial CHOICE Act. It contains this destructive sentence regarding payday lending which hits the working poor exceptionally hard:
US Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB): “NO AUTHORITY TO REGULATE SMALL-DOLLAR CREDIT —The Agency may not exercise any rulemaking, enforcement, or other authority with respect to payday loans, vehicle title loans, or other similar loans.” (Sec. 733)
Please act ASAP!
