In the last year credit card companies collected $14.5 billion in late fees alone, impacting low-income households the hardest, perpetuating cycles of financial inequity. Thank you consumerfinance.gov for capping these fees + protecting marginalized communities.

Imagine thinking that Americans would prefer overdraft fees as a 'safety net' over NOT PAYING THE FEES IN THE FIRST PLACE. Thank goodness @potus & @cfpb are ending junk fees. Mind melting stuff from Financial Services GOP
