Roger Williams: Pass this bill to rein in ‘abuse of power’

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Roger Williams (R-Texas), a member of the House Financial Services Committee, today spoke on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to urge passage of the Financial Institution Customer Protection Act.

“The Obama White House has single handedly granted itself the authority to cut off relationships between private financial institutions and the perfectly legitimate businesses which they serve,” said Williams.

“As a second generation small business owner, I support H.R.766 which will rein in this abuse of power.”

This afternoon, the House passed the Financial Institution Customer Protection Act by a vote of 250-169.
