We need more economic justice lawyers like Kasubhai in the judiciary who will protect the rights of all of us – not just the wealthy and powerful. Kasubhai was nominated over a year ago, and we need the Senate to #ConfirmKasubhai #NoVacanciesNoExcuses

[NACA @NACAdvocate]

#CourtsMatter and judges make decisions that impact consumers rights and economic justice. Call your Senators (202-224-3121) and tell them to #ConfirmJudgesNow. We need to confirm fair-minded judges who will work for all of us!

Last week, the 9th Cir. affirmed a ruling that LiveNation's forced arbitration clause is unconscionable after it one-sidedly switched arbitration forums.

Consumer champions. Well-deserved!

The new rule from @CFPB is about giving consumers control over their personal financial data and empowering them to choose the service providers that work best for them. More consumer choice = more competitive marketplace.

[NACA @NACAdvocate]

Great reporting from ProPublica that highlights a crucial fact: due to the spread of forced arbitration in auto financing contracts, cheated consumers must rely on state and federal enforcement for relief.

[ProPublica @propublica]

When Santander Consumer USA got in trouble with regulators, several execs moved to auto lender Exeter Finance, where they used the same playbook: making riskier loans more expensive and granting extensions when borrowers struggled.

After clearing yet another challenge to its constitutionality, @CFPB has upped its enforcement activity. Thank you to the Bureau for staying relentless in its mission to protect consumers.

FTC’s new rule requires sellers to make it as easy for consumers to cancel their enrollment in products and services as it was to sign up. We definitely needed this! #clicktocancel

FTC announces final “Click-to-Cancel” Rule making it easier for consumers to end recurring subscriptions and memberships: https://t.co/yL4TtZrnHp #ClicktoCancel /1

We need the @FTC #CARSRule because even record-setting enforcement cases are not deterring dealers from cheating car buyers. Thank you @linakhanFTC for pursuing this Rule! @ConsumerFed #TruthInCarBuying

[NACA @NACAdvocate]

Consumers, honest car dealers, servicemembers, and many more need the CARS Rule to help level the playing field! It's not asking for much for dealers to be upfront and transparent.

[Consumer Federation of America @ConsumerFed]

Today, the Fifth Circuit will hear oral argument about the @FTC CARS Rule after auto dealer groups sued to stop the Rule from becoming law. #CARSRule will save consumers thousands of hours and billions of dollars by requiring honest, up-front car pricing.

Fine Print.
Forced Arbitration.
Hidden Fees.

Enough!

Consumers need protection from corporate tricks.

Illegal repossessions are just the tip of the iceberg.

Great work by CFPB highlighting the many ways auto financing companies have been harming consumers.

🚨 NEW LAWSUIT! 🚨

@EPICPrivacy, @Richman_Law, and @NACAdvocate are suing RentGrow, a popular tenant screening company, for unfair and deceptive practices tied to their automated tenant screening reports. 1/4

https://t.co/j9x9ISQo1I

[NACA @NACAdvocate]

.@IraRheingold: "RentGrow is using AI to create reports that are full of inaccuracies and bias, and they have not done anything to correct that...And that causes harm because landlords are making determinations about tenants based on inaccurate information.”

[NACA @NACAdvocate]

"NACA argues that RentGrow, in its use of artificial intelligence and other automated systems to create tenant screening reports, failed to vet the results to make sure they were accurate, as is required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act."

If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. The FTC has great tips on how consumers can avoid solar scams that are becoming increasingly common.

The FTC's Holder Rule, which preserves consumers' rights to assert claims and defenses against any holder of a credit contract, is just as relevant today as it was in 1976 when it was enacted.
