Rashida Tlaib Instagram – We held a discussion with local and state officials on the federal proposal to remove medical debt from appearing on credit reports that hurt our families for years to come. No one chooses to get sick. Medical debt never belonged on credit reports and should never ever be a way to target our families that can’t afford medical care. This won’t fix our broken and corrupt health care system, but we at least expose that harm to our families and protect them when we can.
I welcomed the Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Rohit Chopra, who is leading the rule making process to prohibit medical debt from credit reports permanently.
