“It’s really dishonest advertising. These products advertise themselves as having 0 APR. Earned wage access products are just payday loans with a fintech veneer,” said Andrew Kushner, a policy counsel for the Center for Responsible Lending. #StopTheDebtTrap

Get access to your hard-earned wages whenever and wherever at no cost. That was the pitch the Earned Wage Access industry made to the country's working class. Instead, some Americans say they're trapped in a cycle of borrowing with APRs as high as 330% bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

As soon as tomorrow, #SCOTUS could decide to hear Big Business's challenge to the CFPB's funding structure.
Corporate fraudsters are hoping the Court sides with them, gutting the Bureau and other vital regulators.
We must #DefendCFPB — not defund it.

Overdraft fees act as a punishment for being financially insecure. Almost 80% of overdraft fee revenue comes from just 9% of accounts, with a median balance of $350! Tell your member of Congress to #ProtectConsumers NOW! Click here: bit.ly/overdraftcong

Many families are still getting hammered with overdraft fees. Legislation from @RepMaloney would limit the cost of each overdraft fee and how frequently they could be charged. Congress should send this bill to the president’s desk.

Happy 11th birthday, @CFPB! The CFPB uses all of the regulatory tools at its disposal to #ProtectConsumers, from rulemaking to enforcement. Just last week, the CFPB launched a suit against predatory lender @ACECash. Thank you, @CFPB! #StopTheDebtTrap

Yesterday, our partners joined with @RepMaloney, @SenBooker, and @SenWarren to urge Congress to advance the Overdraft Protection Act and end predatory fees that hurt the most vulnerable.
U.S. PIRG@uspirg
We joined @RepMaloney, @SenBooker, and @SenWarren for a press conference urging overdraft protections. @MikeLittUSA: Financial institutions rake in billions of dollars a year from these overly punitive overdraft fees, which mostly penalize customers with the least money to lose.

No 86-year-old should fear for her safety at the grocery store.
No 9-year-old should be afraid to go to school.
And no 18-year-old should be able to buy a weapon of war.
