The GOP is trying to overturn a Biden Administration rule that caps credit card late fees at just $8.
Hidden charges (also known as junk fees) on concert tickets, food and grocery delivery orders, airline tickets, and countless other purchases add up, hurting working families and individuals who are already struggling to make ends meet.
That’s why Rob proudly supported legislation to ban junk fees across California, which will go into effect in July. While California is leading the way in cutting costs and protecting consumers, Republicans in Congress are actively trying to let credit card companies pick our pockets.
The GOP is trying to overturn a Biden Administration rule from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) that caps credit card late fees at just $8.
In a committee hearing, the Republican congressman leading the charge said: "The vast majority of Americans agree that [junk fees] are legitimate. They don't think they're junk." In actuality, polls show 9 in 10 voters oppose these fees.
We need more cracking down on abusive junk fees, not less. Sign the petition to tell Congress: Do not help credit card companies pick the pockets of hard-working Americans!

As Rob continues to fight for consumers here in California, let’s make it clear to every member of Congress that people across the country are tired of being taken advantage of with misleading prices and hidden fees.
