John,

The Biden administration has proposed new rules that would slash credit card late fees. Those fees could be reduced to $8, saving American consumers as much as $9 billion a year.

Sign the petition: Support President Biden and Congress’ efforts to protect American consumers with the termination of “junk fees”.

President Biden will also urge Congress to ban hidden "junk fees" and penalties that creep into everyday retail services across industries including entertainment, utility, and travel. The Junk Fee Prevention Act would target excessive fees on things like online concerts, sporting events, airline tickets, hidden hotel fees, and termination fees for TV, phone, and internet services.

 

 

These efforts by the Biden administration to undo the burden of corporate-greed on consumers has been ongoing. The Biden administration previously announced efforts to reduce junk bank fees that largely target low-income folks and people of color. Those changes will reduce fees by more than $1 billion annually. The new proposed focus on “junk fees” will help millions of Americans find fast relief from   costly fees that pile up and obstruct any meaningful efforts to reach economic relief.  

Join us in supporting the Biden administration’s efforts to curb harmful consumer fees, and urge Congress to do their part to protect consumers by passing the Junk Fee Prevention Act.

Sign the petition: Support President Biden and Congress’ efforts to protect American consumers with the termination of “junk fees”.

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
