John,
We all know how frustrating it is to see hidden fees and charges tacked onto our bills for services that we already paid for. These “junk fees” are all too common and can add up to hundreds of dollars and sometimes more per year.
Thankfully, there is hope on the horizon: President Biden and Congress are working to protect American consumers by terminating these fees once and for all.
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.
The act will not only save Americans billions of dollars annually but also level the playing field for businesses that price their products transparently.
If you’re tired of being nickel-and-dimed by these junk fees, then it’s time to take action. Support President Biden and Congress’ efforts to protect American consumers with the termination of “junk fees”.
Junk fees are exploitative and unfair to consumers. They are often hidden or buried in the fine print of contracts, making it difficult for people to understand exactly what they’re paying for.
This can lead to confusion and frustration, and in many cases, consumers end up paying for services they don’t even use.
The Biden-Harris plan to crack down on junk fees that take money out of Americans' pockets and conceal the true cost of products will require companies to be transparent about the fees they charge and end them entirely.
Consumers can then make more informed choices about which products and services they want to purchase and companies will compete on price and quality, rather than on the basis of hidden fees and charges.
The bottom line is, do we want to live in a society where businesses can take advantage of consumers with hidden fees and charges, or do we want to live in a society where transparency and fairness are the norm?
So sign the petition: Support President Biden and Congress’ efforts to protect American consumers with the termination of “junk fees”.
Together we will help create a more just and equitable society for all.
