News Payday Loan Cap Initiative
posted by on February 8 at 8:39 AM
Seattle private investigator Richard Newland filed yesterday for a ballot initiative that would cap payday loan interest rates at 36 percent. His proposal closely resembles a bill that is currently struggling in Olympia, where a bi-partisan cadre of pols has been lending an ear to pleas of salvation from the the industry, which claims it would be put out of business by the cap. I’m not very handy with this web tool, but I will try to post the initiative here. Nope. Can’t do it. Will seek help and try later.

K001!
Who is Richard Newland? He isn't listed as a coalition member fighting payday lenders. He isn't Tim Eyman. Who hates someone enough to file their own initiative, but not work on the issue?
Well, I was a guy who had $5.00 to spend and said I can do this. who are you?
