"Providing the Debt Settlement Industry with the Strongest Voice in Washington and in Statehouses Across the Country."
About the CFE PAC
The Consumer Financial Empowerment Political Action Committee (CFE PAC) allows the debt settlement industry to financially support candidates for state and federal office whose policy platforms encourage the ability of consumers to choose debt settlement as an option to address dealing with their unsecured debt.
The debt settlement industry’s ability to protect its existing book of business and to expand into new states is directly tied to the success of the CFE PAC. Because corporate contributions to candidates for federal office are prohibited, and state laws vary on the use of corporate contributions to support candidates for state office, the CFE PAC is a critical component of the debt settlement industry’s policy efforts.
To provide new opportunities in states in which debt settlement is currently prohibited and to fend back unfounded regulatory and legislative attacks that threaten our business in states in which we have done business for years, our industry needs a strong political voice. The CFE PAC affords our industry with that voice.
The CFE PAC is managed by a Steering Committee of industry leaders, which sets general policy and directs and controls the Committee’s funds.
Why You Should Contribute
The ability of companies to offer debt settlement services to consumers depends significantly on our capacity, as an industry, to ensure that debt settlement is both permissible and economical under state laws.
- As we collectively fight to both open new states for business for debt settlement firms, and to push back against attempts to restrict the ability of our industry to offer its services in states, we need your help.
- To provide our industry with the strongest voice in statehouses across the country and in Washington, your financial support of the CFE PAC is critical. Your support of the CFE PAC will allow the industry to engage politically in multiple states, providing significant new business opportunities and defending existing markets.
