Yesterday, Southern Minnesota Organizer, Sophie Hoiseth, and long-time advocacy partner, Anna Odegaard, took over 10,000 steps around Capital Hill, meeting with two senators and four representatives from Minnesota to talk about restoring funding to the CFPB, and high cost lending (including rent-a-bank loans and payday loan apps).

Lenders are required to provide a Truth in Lending statement so borrowers can see how much they will have to pay back, including interest and fees.

This is a real example: an APR of 348% equaling a finance charge of $7,303!

The graphic below shows that original Truth in Lending statement alongside the updated version from their newly refinanced loan with Exodus Lending.

At the end of last month, our team at Exodus pulled out all the stops for a legislative hearing related to the industry's payday loan app bill. We wanted to take a huge moment of appreciation for everyone who testified against this carve out bill.

We are so proud of the work we do refinancing payday loan apps AND we take it to the next level and use our community of expertise to advocate against legislation that would allow fintechs to go around our existing rate cap bill.

There is still more to do in organizing for fair lending, but we are proud of this step and the way we showed up!
