Please call your Senators and Congressman to support HR 3149
This bill will make it against federal law for prospective employers to run credit check on job applicants. Many good people who have fallen on tough times have been unable to get jobs because their credit has gone bad in recent years. How can someone fix their credit if they can not get a job?

This bill needs a Senate sponsor.

This practice is assuring the creation of a permanent underclass.

2. THe bankers can screw up and they get bailed out.
Regular people get into trouble and they get blacklisted from employment.

6. Go to the main Thomas search page
http://thomas.loc.gov/bss/d111query.html

Put Hr 3149 into the box, select Bill Number from the drop down in front of the search box and hit "Search". That will get you there.
