For too long, everyone called this committee Senate Banking – because it always delivered for Wall Street. We changed that – we're the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee. And today we're holding accountable the CEOs of the nation’s seven biggest retail banks.

How a bill becomes a law: you listen to people on the ground, you work with both parties, you build support, and you never stop fighting. That's what we did with our fight against fentanyl. That’s what we always do. We keep the politics out & get things done for Ohio.

We did it. Our bill to help cut fentanyl off at the source & stop it from entering our country is now law. I never gave up on this because I never give up on Ohio.

BREAKING: Our bipartisan bill to crack down on fentanyl traffickers in China & Mexico is now law. This is an important step that will save lives — we’ll never stop fighting to protect Ohio communities from this deadly drug.

PASSED SENATE: Our bipartisan bill to help cut fentanyl off at the source is one step away from becoming law. The President must sign the national security package immediately to take on the cartels in Mexico & chemical suppliers in China that are devastating Ohio communities.

Housing is too expensive and too hard to find. Today’s hearing is about how our housing regulators can build upon their work to increase housing supply and lower housing costs for families. Tune in:

This deal is good for Ukraine and good for American workers, and will spur more private sector investment in Ukraine. This is the kind of creative solution we need to support the Ukrainian people as they defend themselves against Russia's brutal invasion.

Churches, synagogues, and other religious orgs want to put their faith into action by developing housing on land they already own. @SenSherrodBrown 's YIGBY Act will help them cut through red tape to lower housing costs and expand options for families.

Secretary Fudge has always understood that housing is at the center of people’s lives. Thank you @SecFudge for working to lower costs for first-time homebuyers, fight housing discrimination, and uplift @HUDgov ’s mission in every community across our country.

A year later, the executives of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic have faced zero accountability for their part in their banks' failures. Our bipartisan RECOUP Act passed committee 21 to 2 – it's time for Congress to finish the job and pass it into law.

That’s right – the @CFPB capping credit card late fees will BOOST our economy by billions of dollars, in addition to helping Americans keep more of their money in their pockets.

Affordable housing is a top concern in California, which has some of the highest costs of housing in the country. During today's @SenateBanking hearing I asked @federalreserve chair, Jerome Powell how the feds monetary policy is impacting the supply of affordable rentals.

High interest rates are raising housing costs higher and higher for families who were already facing a tough market with too few options and too high prices.

Americans today pay more for groceries than they have in 30 years. And Ohioans are paying for corporations’ executive bonuses and stock buybacks every time they go to the grocery store.

Today the Committee advanced the nomination of Dr. Ron Borzekowski to led the Office of Financial Research @USTreasury . Dr. Borzekowski’s years of experience has prepared him to lead OFR as it guards against risk to our financial system.

High interest rates aren’t bringing down prices. They’re making housing more expensive, and hurting small businesses and workers, all while allowing corporate price-gouging to continue. Tune into our hearing with @federalreserve Chair Powell:

Credit card companies make over $14 billion every year in late fees, punishing people who struggle to make ends meet. It’s the definition of kicking someone while they’re down, and a perfect example of why it’s so expensive to be poor in America. Good move by President Biden.

The @CFPB announces that credit card companies must drop late fees from more than $30 to just $8. A strong and independent CFPB means more money where it belongs—in your pocket.
