Americans for Financial Reform sent a letter to members of the House Financial Services Committee urging them to vote against 6 bills under consideration in today’s markup—HR 2128, HR 5534, HR 6021,HR 6741, HR 6743, and HR 6745.
These bills would reduce protections for consumers, investors and the public, counterbalanced by no serious efforts to strengthen regulation of Wall Street. On the tenth anniversary of the global financial crisis, it is disturbing that the House is continuing to prioritize Wall Street’s agenda over the public interest.
