Rep. Ashford Visits with Bowling Green State University Class


State Rep. Michael Ashford (D-Toledo) last month visited a Bowling Green State University (BGSU) class of future teachers who are learning about consumer financial decision-making. He discussed his recently passed payday lending reform legislation, House Bill (HB) 123 and how it will impact millions of Ohioans across the state who utilize short-term loans.

 

“I really enjoyed engaging with these future educators about the importance of consumer protections in the payday lending industry and showing them a model that makes the topic more real when they are teaching it to their future students,” said Ashford. “I hope that this conversation emphasized how critical it is that working families have access to short term loans in a way that is fair to them and how anyone could find themselves in a situation where they needed a loan to make ends meet, making it all the more crucial to have protections.”
