👀 Look at these consumer advocates asking for a 36% maximum APR, to call Earned Wage Access what it is - a payday loan app - and fund the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. #ProtectConsumers #CAD2026

Thank you @SenWarren & @ChrisVanHollen for working to stop new high-cost loans in states with interest rate caps. @USOCC @FederalReserve must stop Enova from merging with Grasshopper Bank.

Time and again, Trump has failed to deliver on his promise to cap credit card interest rates at 10%.
The latest test – will his regulators allow a bank to charge interest rates of more than 100% to families across America already struggling with rising costs?

Federal banking regulators should reject Enova's bid to buy a national bank because it would allow them to issue high-cost loans in states with interest rate caps, said @SenWarren @ChrisVanHollen. #StopTheDebtTrap
