At today’s House Financial Services Committee hearing, I made the case that Ohio borrowers should be able to shop around for the credit option that works best for them, whether that lender is based in Ohio or another state.
My American Lending Fairness Act protects that choice while keeping state-chartered banks on a level playing field with the biggest national banks.

Each 100 additional MoneySKILL participants in a high school increased total FAFSA applications by 4. High schools adopting MoneySKILL increased total FAFSA applications by 2.2. This information is sourced from the Evaluating MoneySKILL impact evaluation published in 2023, which utilized anonymous user data from 102,279 MoneySKILL students completing the course between 2014 and 2022.
