Bernie Wants to Know About Credit Card Abuse

Bernie Sanders (I-VT) wants to know whether you are being ripped off by credit card companies:

Have you been ripped off by your credit card company? Congressman Sanders wants to know your story.

Have you been treated unfairly by your credit card company?

Have your interest rates been raised?

How high?

Have you been hit with late fees?

Congressman Sanders is fighting hard in Washington to end the dirty tricks often used by card card companies to rip off American consumers. We need your help.
Tell us your story.

Why is Bernie asking this? Because everyone else in the House and Senate has been purchased by the credit card companies. The data are here at the Center for Responsive Politics.

Finance/Insurance/Real Estate: Money to Congress

The top two recipients in the 2004 cycle were Gephardt and Isakson.

Gephardt, Richard A (D) $1,812,192
Isakson, Johnny (R-GA) $1,180,708

Meanwhile, Bernie comes in close to last.

Sanders, Bernie (I-VT) $18,000

The lesson: credit card companies should give Bernie some money!
