    The 2010 #DoddFrank law has really hurt small banks in my state. By 2014, more than 40% of the banks in #Oklahoma no longer did mortgage lending at all. That means less opportunity for rural families, farmers, and small businesses. My state needs #Relief4MainStreet.pic.twitter.com/kXX5Qy6lob

        REALLY? 40% ?? What banks quit lending because I am a Realtor and I know of ZERO banks who have quit mortgage lending.

        Don't let your intelligent facts get in the way of a Church summer camp manager acting as a senator. Lankford has sold out his constituents.

        I know a few banks that almost went under with subprime loans. #DoddFrank is a good thing. Shame you and the GOP are going to hurt the working guy, again!

        These regs were universally applied to thousands of community banks that had ZERO to do with subprime lending. These regs have cause big banks to get bigger, and community banks to close. (Trust me, not good for consumers)

        You sure do have a vivid imagination. Either that or you are about as gullible as a two year old. No banks are being harmed by Dodd-Frank, they just don't like playing fair with consumers.

        And what happened before Dodd-Frank, Senator? That's right, banks took advantage, consumers got SCREWED, and government had to bail them out, which means we got hosed TWICE. MAGA, right?

        DoddFrank prevents lending practices that caused the Bush Crash.

        As a community banker from Tahlequah, 🙌🏼. Our institution has faced an incredible burden from these regs, which are easy for the largest institution to comply with but costly and burdensome for banks like ours. Simply drives business to the largest banks.

        False. The 2010 #DoddFrank law provides crucial protections to American borrowers. Other protections that Americans need: #GunReformNow Over 80% of Americans support universal background checks and a ban on assault weapons. We need these laws now. #MarchForOurLives

        Not another bailout. Oklahoma is drowning in corruption. Vote the people’s voice. Not for corporate welfare. Get your hand out of Big Oil’s pocket and represent the OK voters.

        Sorry, Senator, but banks need to be regulated or else they go crazy. We don’t want to enable another financial crisis. Hear me, @SenToomey ?? NO to repeal of Dodd-Frank. 19060.

        Stop framing this as a small banks issue. The law protects Americans from abuses by the rich and powerful.
