“I have to acknowledge that I am a little disheartened that my friends across the aisle are encouraging the defeat of a rule that would bring a vote to protect consumers from having the CFPB collect financial data on them. I know my friends want to talk about flood insurance, and we are, no doubt, going to have that day to have that conversation, and it is important; but the bottom line today--the conversation today--is that we protect consumers from having their information collected on them just like the NSA is collecting phone records on Americans. Let's stand together. Let's protect the middle class. Let's protect small community banks and financial institutions. That is the vote today. Stand with us. Let's move the ball forward for hardworking middle class families who want to keep their information and their data to themselves, and let's move forward at a date soon to be acknowledged on flood insurance.”
