Letter from the Society of St. Vincent De Paul Tucson Diocesan Council to AZ State Senate Finance and Commerce Committee re: Earned Wage Access bill
Letter requesting NOT to pass bill SB 1273: earned wage access; providers; license
"The Society of St. Vincent de Paul of Southern Arizona strongly opposes SB 1273, well knowing that those who might be tempted to borrow on such predatory terms are usually the most vulnerable and desperate within our population. These products have no useful place in Arizona, not for the working poor nor anyone else. Why would anyone with an acceptable credit rating borrow under such usurious conditions?"
