Don’t Let Trump Gut Medical Debt Protections






















Medical debt is not like other debt—it’s often unexpected and unavoidable. That’s why the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has fought to ensure that medical debt doesn’t unfairly tank people’s credit scores.



 



But now, the Trump administration is attacking the CFPB, threatening key financial protections that help millions of people. Weakening—or worse, eliminating—the CFPB means more families could face financial ruin just because they needed medical care.



 



The CFPB exists to protect everyday people from predatory practices by banks or debt collectors. It has bipartisan support because it works. And we need to make sure it stays that way.





We’re fighting back—but we can’t do it alone. Will you donate to help us keep the pressure on lawmakers and defend the financial protections people rely on?
