WASHINGTON DC – Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) helped introduce a bill to protect consumers from scams. The Stop the Scammers Act would restore critical Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) funding and reward whistleblowers who report wrongdoing. This comes after the passage of the extreme Republican budget bill, which cut CFPB funding, removing vital protections for victims of fraud and people experiencing abusive practices from financial institutions.
“Too often, Nevadans are targeted and fall victim to online scams, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has played a key role in protecting families from being ripped off,” dijo el Senador Rosen. “That’s why I’m helping introduce this bill to protect Nevadans from scams by restoring CFPB funding and safeguarding American families from these criminal schemes.”
Senator Rosen has worked to protect consumers. She was part of a letter urging the Trump administration to reverse plans to cut the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Senator Rosen also signed on to a letter calling on the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to investigate and stop corporations that may be using Donald Trump’s tariffs as a cover to raise prices.
