These comments are from Texas Appleseed. Background: Comments on proposed rulemaking on payday, vehicle title, and certain high-cost installment loans. Docket Number: CFPB-2016-0025 or RIN 3170-AA40. There are three Supplemental Resources related to this comment: 1) Payday & Auto Title Lending in Texas White Paper 2) Payday & Auto Title Lending Abuses: An Analysis of Complaints from Texas Consumers 3) Loan Contracts. Brief Excerpt: Texas needs strong rules from the CFPB to complement the local work that has been done here, so that fair lending standards apply everywhere. The following sections document the problem in Texas, offer support for strong components of the rule, and provide insight, based on the Texas experience, into where the rule still needs to be strengthened.
