A gold mine for hackers should be a digital Fort Knox when it comes to security.
So it is pretty troubling that you continue to dig in and say arbitration is better for customers because it clearly is not.
On average, the CFPB found consumers paid $7,700 in arbitration overall, in arbitration cases.
I think it was made in good faith. But I also think that forced arbitration clauses always give the advantage to the employer, to the bank, as we know.
The CEO was overseeing a mass fraud. He gets a compensation increase from $19 to $21 million a year.
But that it took you, you the company--you personally 8 months, you the company 13 months to disclose such a violation of the public trust just makes me incredulous.
You defend wage theft--your company is defending wage theft in court by fighting these overtime claims by your employees.

We all have to earn the public's trust every day. Right now, the SEC needs to do more, and it needs to make sure that the companies it regulates do better.
How are Main Street investors expected to have confidence that the SEC can hold big companies accountable when the SEC is not more immediately forthcoming?
We expect that companies that hold Americans' personal and financial data will keep that information secure and be upfront with the public.
Medicaid keeps her alive so she is able to spend time with her kids and her grandkids.
This proposal undermines protections for the close to 600,000 people in Hawaii and 134 million people all across the country living with preexisting conditions.
The traditional Medicaid program--which is a lifeline for people with disabilities, seniors, kids and pregnant women--suffers draconian cuts.
The competition in State capitals from all those advocates, children's advocates, opioid treatment advocates, senior advocates, hospital advocates, how does this play out?
Included in the BCRA was $45 billion specially requested from some of us on this committee for opioid addiction treatment.
