ANA Writes to House Energy and Commerce Committee Ahead of CFPA Markup
A markup of the Consumer Financial Protection Act in the House Energy and Commerce Committee has been announced for Thursday. This bill, which creates a new Consumer Financial Protection Agency (CFPA) will cover many issues impacting the FTC as well.

We have provided a letter to the Committee discussing our serious concerns with the proposed changes in this area.
