It is time to hold banks accountable for irresponsible and excessively risky actions, for abuse and deceit in lending, and for lost jobs and homes. We need a financial system that works for Main Street, not just Wall Street.
I support strong financial reform legislation that puts an end to the casino economy on Wall Street, creates an effective, independent Consumer Financial Protection Agency, and ends the era of taxpayer bailouts. I oppose carve outs, loopholes, and exemptions that will undermine a fair and open playing field.
