Oppose HR 3229 would make it easier for predatory high-cost lenders to use rent-a-bank arrangements to evade state usury laws that limit high interest rates. Oppose HR 3948 which would prevent the SEC from fully investigating high-frequency trading practices that could crash markets. Oppose HR 3911 which would significantly weaken oversight of the big rating agencies who prior to the financial crisis certified trillions of dollars of worthless mortgage-backed securities as safe for investors. Oppose HR 1699 which would remove key consumer protections for buyers of manufactured homes, rendering them more vulnerable to predatory lending. Oppose HR 2706 which would place major new barriers on the ability of banking regulators to advise financial institutions of warning signs that their customers are engaged in money laundering, illegal activity, or fraudulent practices that give scammers access to bank accounts. Oppose HR 2954 which would nearly quadruple the number of banks exempted from key mortgage disclosures designed to detect predatory and discriminatory lending, leading to 5,400 banks being exempted as well as an additional 487 non-banks. Oppose HR 2201 which would create a new class of microcap securities that could be traded without any oversight from the Securities and Exchange Commission or state regulators - securities that would almost certainly become a haven for fraud. Oppose HR 2121 and HR 2148 which micromanage regulators by forcing them to grant significant new exemptions from rules designed to prevent risky banking and lending practices. Support Janet Yellens re-appointment as Chair of the Federal Reserve. Oppose Federal Reserve Board of Governors nominees who have criticized the Feds full employment mandate and called for its elimination or deprioritization; seek to constrain job growth by advocating for the Fed to follow a strict, rules-based approach to monetary policy (e.g. the Taylor Rule, which economists estimate would have cost 2.5 million jobs had it been in effect in the Fed over the past five years); have a track record of advocating for reduced support for the economy even during the depths of the Great Recession; would unwind the financial protections enacted by Yellen and her peers. Support Leandra English to be the Acting Director of the CFPB; not Mick Mulvaney Oppose HR 1699, a bill which would remove key consumer protections for buyers of manufactured homes Support the FAIR RATES Act of 2017 (The Fair Auto Insurance Ratemaking Reporting to Allow a Transparent Evaluation of Statistics) Oppose H.R. 2570, the Mortgage Fairness Act of 2017, which removes yield spread premiums from points and fees Oppose H.R. 3971, the Community Institution Mortgage Relief Act which creates loopholes for abuse by rolling back essential consumer protections. Strengthen the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) by: expanding CRA to non-banks; designate areas outside of branch networks with high volumes of loans as assessment areas; retain and do not in any way reduce the Intermediate Small Bank category; encourage large banks to be more efficient and devote more staff resources for CRA exams; standardize CRA exam methodology and format; execute merger application process; credit should be given for community development loans and investments outside assessment areas. Oppose H.J.Res. 122, which uses the Congressional Review Act to nullify the CFPBs proposed payday lending rule. Support Government Sponsored Enterprise (GSE) legislation which promotes homeownership among low and moderate income Americans and Americans of color Oppose H.R. 3299, the Protecting Consumers' Access to Credit Act of 2017, which allows smaller institutions to skirt usury limits enacted by states to protect consumers from egregious profit seekers by using federal charters, hoping to make money from those who can often least afford it.
