    The only people who don’t like my Postal Banking Act are the payday lenders who profit off Americans’ desperation. So it’s time to fight back, put them out of business and bring justice to people in communities nationwide.pic.twitter.com/prWe5wsNrq

        Agreed. Postal banking works in many other countries. It fills a terrible void and is desperately needed in the USA. Thank you for your leadership on this topic. #Banking

        In Texas, a state legislator owned these businesses. They require a signed check for loan. If they dont pay, they deposit check to prosecute people for "Theft by Check." In Texas, any hot check over $1,000 is a felony. Now real question is, are prison companies involved?

        If legislators involved in approving these businesses are accepting donations from prison companies, is this a way to imprison lower income people? The War on Poor has been weaponized by payday loan companies, just like the War on Drugs incarcerated hundreds of thousands

        When she has influence with the GOP, which will be never because of our partisan style of politics.

        Once again. Franken is a Dem as is she. Jordan is not. She can have no real impact on Jordan's fate. Other things I haven't heard from her on much: Puerto Rico, Flint, 45*s trade wars.Politicians try to focus efforts for largest impact on issues where they can have biggest effect

        She could at least speak out about him. Make it a discussion. Instead? Silence.

        Yes, she could. And then prepare for the barrage of "why is she meddling in affairs of the other house of Congress", "she is all talk and no action", why is she trying to tell the GOP how to manage their affairs. I also would like more discussion, but I do not fault her choice.

        Not paying any attention to you! You forced Senator Al Franken out of the Senate! You helped the Republican's and Trump silence their most effective critic! I will never support you! You will never become President with my support!

        #TimesUp Urgent!With all due respect, @SenGillibrand i think what needs more focus right now is the 6 yr old that was sexually assaulted at the southern border & made to initial a paper stating she's responsible for staying away from her assailant. #MeToohttps://twitter.com/Lizseeds0311/status/1023633777388650496?s=19 …

        I'm not sure why you think one has to be handled before the other. The predatory loans pose a real danger to millions of people each year.

        The post office is entirely self-funded and takes your letter all the way across the country right to the recipient’s door for 50 cents. I’d love to see a private company manage that.

        Yesterday. The "loss" is an accounting fiction created by Congressional Republicans forcing the USPS to pre-fund pensions & medical by 75 years. Find one private corporation in America doing the same.
