Rep. Hill (R-AR) & 17 MAGA Republicans want to eliminate a popular Biden-era rule that lowered bank overdraft fees (H.J.Res.59). This takes money out of your pocket. They aren't working for you.

For the first time in its long history, the United States of America is deliberately sabotaging its leading industries, raising the dark specter of becoming an isolated technological backwater. Tell Congress to save the IRA & keep America competitive!
