Advocating Financial Literacy
By Congressman Ruben Hinojosa, 15th District of Texas
Financial Literacy Month is about empowering Americans to take control of their fiscal futures, whether by avoiding payday lenders, opening a first savings account or planning for a retirement. We all strive for a more stable financial life for ourselves and our families.
I am honored to serve as the co-chair of the Congressional Financial and Economic Literacy Caucus along with my colleague Congressman Ruben Hinojosa (D-TX-15). I truly believe this issue is so important because many of our country's economic problems can be addressed by educating Americans of all ages on financial literacy.
