Complicated pricing models that obscure the true cost of a product with junk fees add up for consumers. The @CFPB will continue to take action to protect the creep of junk fees into the market and consumers’ wallets.

BREAKING: Over 4,000 Volkswagen workers in Tennessee just joined the @UAW in a landslide. They’re the first American workers to win a union at a non-union car company in decades. This historic victory will change the auto industry, and the future of American labor.
Remember when coding boot camps financed through income share agreements were going to fix everything? @bloomtech fka Lambda School, which counts @ycombinator @GVteam (Google Ventures) @stripe as investors, and founder @Austen personally hit with CFPB enforcement action:

Everything wrong with a high-cost loan is made worse when the loan is larger and the terms are longer, according to a new report. A reasonable interest rate for a small loan can lead to explosive and unaffordable interest on a larger loan. #StopTheDebtTrap nclc.org/50-state-surve…
Today, the CFPB finalized a rule to cut excessive credit card late fees. The rule reduces the typical fee from $32 to $8, which could save American families an estimated $10 billion each year. consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsr…
The CFPB's work on credit card markets is super-interesting. They're banning big banks from buying placement on supposedly unbiased credit card shopping websites. And then, they're creating their own public option for comparing credit card terms: prospect.org/economy/2024-0…
Waited 20 minutes for my train this morning. Anyone on the Alexandria City Council or Virginia General Assembly want to actually fix WMATA? Or is it just a real estate investment device to you?
A new @CFPB analysis of credit card data found that the largest credit card companies are charging substantially higher interest rates than smaller banks and credit unions. consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsr…
“Should public utility companies be able to donate to Virginia political campaigns?” No. That’s why I filed HB 562 in 2018 and why I filed SB 326 this year. Today marks the first time any version of this bill has passed a committee. It’s a good start. wtkr.com/news/should-pu…
As a kid, the line from "Fast Car" that says "I got a job that pays all our bills" always struck me. Wait, there are some jobs that don't do that? As I've grown older and started writing about money and the economy and people that line pops in my head from time to time

Too often, colleges and universities are making decisions guided by their bottom line, not the best interest of their students. This proposal takes a critical first step to address the long-documented risks associated with the marketing of college-sponsored financial products.
This week, @usedgov released a proposal to curtail junk fees on college-sponsored debit cards and other financial products that are marketed to students on campuses. www2.ed.gov/policy/highere…
Fantastic performance of Next to Normal @RHT_roundhouse tonight! Always glad to see this show and the conversation it sparks.
This is HUGE. People have been advocating for this for so long. I remember talking with advocates and IRS partners as an @AmeriCorps VISTA running #VITA campaigns (nearly 20 years ago). Sometimes progress tax time!

BREAKING: Direct file is a success! 90% gave a positive review, and it delivered over $90 million in refunds. It’s clear that Americans want an easy and free way to file their taxes directly with the IRS — without paying junk fees.
Treasury and IRS released new data on the IRS's Direct File Pilot for the 2024 filing season. The program received positive user feedback, saved participants an estimated $5.6M in tax preparation fees and helped taxpayers access over $90M in refunds. home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel…

This is a watershed moment for workers laboring under TRAPs. @FTC recognized that TRAPs function as noncompetes. Where they do, @FTC banned TRAPs outright. This is about much more than workplace training. It will help right the balance of power between workers & corporations.
@FTC's final rule banning non-competes also bans Training Repayment Agreement Provisions (TRAPs) that "function to prevent a worker from seeking or accepting other work or starting a business after the employment associated with the TRAP."
It's a staggeringly good day for econ policy!! We're banning noncompetes, we're making sure retirement advisors give actual good advice, and we're expanding overtime eligibility! americanprogress.org/press/statemen…
