Join Economic Liberties for Third “Beyond Antitrust” Policy Talk: Ending Junk Fees
Topic: The State & Local Fight Against Junk Fees
Thursday, April 11 at 12:30pm EST
Junk fees — those mandatory and deceptive charges such as “convenience” and “service” fees —are more than just a nuisance. Now ubiquitous across the economy, junk fees add up to a massive wealth transfer from local communities to corporate profits, disadvantaging honest businesses and costing American families tens of billions of dollars annually.
States are leading the way with durable legislative solutions to eliminate junk fees for good, alongside regulatory action from the FTC, CFPB, and the Biden Administration. Already, 12 states across the country have introduced or passed legislation to ban these deceptive charges.
This Thursday, April 11 at 12:30pm EST, join us for our third “Beyond Antitrust” policy talk as we discuss the ongoing progress of our End Junk Fees [[link removed]] campaign, new polling indicating the popularity of banning junk fees, and how state lawmakers across the country can finally throw junk fees in the trash.

The policy talk will feature Pat Garofalo , Director of State and Local Policy at the American Economic Liberties Project and Erin Witte , Director of Consumer Protection for the Consumer Federation of America, to discuss the next stage of these efforts.
We hope you can join us!
Warmly,
Nidhi Hegde
Interim Executive Director
