Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, and other senators heeded our call to
amplify the American Prospect's big report yesterday that Republicans are
trying to overturn a Biden Administration rule capping credit card late
fees:

AMERICAN PROSPECT: Republicans Are Objectively Pro–Junk Fee
Every Republican, including those in swing districts, will now have to
decide whether they support higher costs on Americans.

Can you add to the momentum and help spread the word so millions of people
know that Democrats are fighting corporate greed and want to lower costs
for American families, while Donald Trump and congressional Republicans
are actively fighting to raise costs by doing the bidding of greedy
corporations? Forward this email to others, and take these steps:

 1. If you're on any social media, post this article:

The American Prospect quotes our Progressive Change co-founder on why this
is so important:

In politics, an argument typically needs two sides for it to be elevated
in the national conversation. "We’ve seen Democratic unity on fighting
surprise junk fees and naming corporate villains like credit card
companies, banks, and airlines," said Adam Green, co-founder of the
Progressive Change Institute, which worked with the Biden administration
last year to arrange local events on junk fees in places like Michigan and
Pennsylvania. "What’s been missing is opponents smoking themselves out and
raising the volume of this fight so the public knows who is on their
side."...

So here we have a potential VP pick and the financial industry teaming up
to support junk fees. Every Republican, including those in swing
districts, will now have to decide whether they support higher costs on
Americans, which will be redistributed to the banks and the card
companies.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
