Federal Agencies Continue the Fight Against Junk Fees
Washington, D.C. – Today, President Biden announced a major step forward in the government-wide effort to crack down on junk fees. Consumer Federation of America applauds the Administration for taking these decisive steps to put tens of billions of dollars back in the pockets of hardworking Americans.
“It is clear that Americans across party lines are tired of being scammed and forced into paying worthless junk fees,” said Erin Witte, Director of Consumer Protection at Consumer Federation of America. “Junk fees disproportionately impact low-income consumers and communities of color, and we fully support the efforts of each of these agencies to put an end to these practices.”
