Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott, Republican of South Carolina, is calling on businesses and individuals to report incidents of debanking, according to a press release. The ATM Nation has called on ATM operators to tell their stories of being denied banking services in an email.
“As Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, I’m committed to ensuring Americans who have been debanked have their voices heard, and to prevent chokepoint activities from happening in the future. If you have been debanked, I encourage you to reach out to my staff through our confidential whistleblower resource. Working together, we can ensure bad actors who have exploited their power are held accountable,” Scott said in the release.
There will be a hearing on debanking on Feb. 5. ATM operators and other businesses can email RepWhistleblowers@banking.senate.gov or call 202-224-4287 to share their stories.
