Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and the Consumer Protection Act
How did your Congress person vote on the New US Bankruptcy Abuse Act...
Here's how each member of Congress voted on the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention - Consumer Protection Act (so you can decide for yourself who to vote against in the next elections).
Every Congress person who voted NO should be applauded. Either in a phone call, letter to the editor or in a faxed letter. They stood up to the powerful special interests and stood with working families who have fallen on tough times.
You may also want to write to those Senators who voted YES and express your disappointment!
