How come your auto insurance rates keep going up and up? It's called "corporate greed." #inflation #insurance

Do you know anyone who likes being charged extra fees, that were hidden from them when they decided to buy a product or service? Me neither. #junkfees #defendcfpb

Your life is precious. Beware of @CarMax. They fail to fix cars with deadly safety recall defects. youtube.com/watch?v=K9lDiT…

Imagine! Being able to find out how much it will cost to buy a car BEFORE you waste a lot of time at a car lot, and get ripped off. No wonder crooked car dealers and greedy predatory banks hate the @FTC 's CARS Rule.

Bravo @ErinWitteCFA for helping bring sleazy corporations who preyed upon vulnerable people to justice! 👏👍 May the victims of their predatory practices finally get the refunds they are owed.

Tired of your bank hitting you with overdraft fees? The @CFPB is actually doing something about it. Good news for consumers, especially folks like students and people who are living paycheck to paycheck. #junkfees
Why do so many #Americans have a hard time saving to buy a home? They're paying way too much to greedy car dealers & lenders who engage in predatory practices like loan packing unwanted items & charging obscene amounts of $$ for "document fees." usa.streetsblog.org/2024/03/25/stu…
This report is more evidence why the @FTC's CARS rule is needed, to help make car prices more transparent & competitive, and help stop crooked car dealers from cheating car buyers by selling worthless add-ons. @NCLC @ErinWitteCFA @chuckbell @RealBankReform

Kudos to @streetsblogkea for delving into ways car ownership robs people of financial security. 👏👍 Another factor: greedy, unscrupulous car dealers & lenders who engage in practices like "loan packing" of high-profit items with little or no real value.

Tired of being ripped off by greedy banks that price-gouge over overdraft fees? Pres. Biden's appointees at @CFPB issued a rule to cut ridiculously high #JunkFees. Saving #American consumers billions of $$. 👏👏👍👍

An auto-dependent society puts tremendous pressure on low-income people to own cars. A car can eat up someone’s budget, expose them to predatory lenders who hurt their credit, or worse. And they're getting more expensive. My latest for @voxdotcom vox.com/23753949/cars-…
SAMMY'S LAW WILL FINALLY PASS! This moment would not have been possible without your tireless advocacy and unending commitment to street safety. A message from Amy Cohen, mother of Sammy Cohen Eckstein:
We warned Huntington Beach and now we’re suing them— this time for violating CA election law and threatening to disenfranchise voters and suppress Californians’ fundamental right to vote sacbee.com/news/politics-…
The #insurance industry has a lot of power in the marketplace.“All of us have to buy #autoinsurance, so they have a captive market." Watch full video here: wxyz.com/news/voices/in…
And you have to ask yourself: are you on the side of more #junkfees for #bigbanks or for everyday people? The @CFPB wants to ensure markets are transparent and fair. #defendcfpb prospect.org/politics/2024-…
Congressman Kevin Hern had $1,082,302 in PPP loans forgiven. Hern had no problem saddling taxpayers with his debt.
Biden's debt transfer scheme puts the burden on taxpayers, forcing the 87% without loans to foot the bill for the 13% who do. Saddling the hardworking taxpayers of America with such a debt transfer will only make life more unaffordable. He’s buying votes during an election year.
Congress made a very clear decision to NOT allow businesses to use fine print traps to force servicemembers into secret arbitration proceedings. @ConsumerFed @CFPB

The fact that this case went FROM a judge with a financial conflict TO a judge with a financial conflict tells you everything you need to know about why credit card companies sued the @CFPB in the Fifth Circuit. @ConsumerFed @AdamRust9
NEW: 5th Circuit Judge Don Willett, who's hearing the legal challenge to CFPB's $8 cap on credit card late fees, reported stock holdings in Citigroup, the nation's second-largest issuer of credit cards. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/0…
washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/… Great work by the @CFPB, NY, VA and MA attorneys general in getting this case across the finish line. I’m proud to have worked on it and bring some justice to these consumers.
Writing this one made me curious: if you are car-free or car-light, what percentage of your household income do you spend on transportation, and what privileges make that possible? I'll start: 2% total, aka one tenth of the average American, apparently. 🫣 usa.streetsblog.org/2024/03/25/stu…
Also: I experience basically zero social pressure/desire to get a more expensive car, which I know is A Thing for a lot of people. Just staggering to think how many layers of reform and culture change need to happen to make affordable transportation realistic for more of us.
Partial list of privileges that make it possible: one partner (me) working from home, paid-off 15 year old junker car, living in a semi-compact neighborhood which makes up for lack of transit, 4 bikes, being white + not worried about police harassment when I walk.
By closing an outdated loophole designed in the check era, the @CFPB's proposed overdraft rule will promote more honest, fair, and affordable forms of overdraft coverage and prevent big banks from charging #JunkFees. #ProtectConsumers
142 groups support @CFPB's proposed overdraft rule to prevent big banks from charging #junkFees that push people out of the banking system. “Banks should not be allowed to harm families by hiding their costs in back-end junk fees." #ProtectConsumers nclc.org/142-organizati…
