Credit cards and consumer protections are the topics this morning on Minnesota Public Radio News. The Midmorning program features a discussion on a bill that passed the U.S. House that would end practices that some claim are unfair to consumers.
The banking industry says it could end up hurting access to consumer credit.
In February we asked people in our Public Insight Network to tell us what kinds of changes they'd seen in their credit card rates and card limits. We got a bunch of great responses with Minnesotans telling us how their rates had been jacked up suddenly.
Got a credit or any other story about the economy to share? Tell us here. We'll take your response and put it with others on our Economic Lookouts mapping project.
