John,

The Supreme Court has rejected the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s independence and ruled that the Trump Administration can meddle with its mission to hold financial companies accountable by firing its director without cause.

Once again, politicians in Washington are putting big banks and Wall Street first.

This is a clear sign that we need to send a fighter for working people to Congress -- not another corporate-backed, career politician. J.D. will stand up for workers, farmers, consumers, and everyone who Wall Street tries to take advantage of when the guard rails come off our economy.

There’s no denying this is a loss for us, John. But it means that we need to work even harder to send J.D. Scholten to Congress to stand tall for all of us. Can you chip in to help this campaign fight for the people? In the aftermath of the Great Recession, the Obama administration created the CFPB to protect American families from predatory big banks and financial firms. Since then, it’s returned nearly $12 billion to consumers’ pockets.

But since day one, some have tried to dismantle this agency’s independence so their buddies on Wall Street can keep preying on consumers just to make an extra buck.

This issue is at the heart of the way J.D. is running this campaign: putting people, not corporations and the 1%, first.

Our government should be of, by, and for the people. If you agree, help us elect a representative who will fight to keep money in your wallet -- that’s J.D. Scholten. Thank you for working to make ours a government that will truly stand tall for all.

-- Team Scholten
