The Senate is expected to pass the #BankLobbyistAct – with Democratic support. But I'm not going down without a fight. I've sponsored a series of amendments to fix major flaws in the bill and add important consumer protections. Here are all 17:

1. Amend the #BankLobbyistAct to prevent rolling back rules on banks that received over $1 billion in taxpayer bailouts during the 2008 crisis. They already wrecked our economy once – we can't let them do it again.

2. Amend the #BankLobbyistAct to prevent rolling back rules on banks that are under Justice Department supervision after being busted for breaking the law. They broke the rules already – they shouldn't be rewarded with less oversight.
