Congressman Lynch has been a champion of America’s working people, supporting strong labor unions and a higher minimum wage and worker protections. As a member of the Financial Services Committee, he has used his post to fight back against the policies the big banks use to penalize the poor, and to increase financial inclusion across the banking system. Congressman Lynch has also been a staunch advocate of promoting jobs here at home, instead of policies or trade deals that will export American jobs and only benefit Fortune 500 CEOs.

As a member of the House Committee on Financial Services, Congressman Lynch help craft the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which created new robust consumer protections, ended government bailouts of the financial system, and imposed transparency and accountability requirements for the most complex, shadowy financial markets. Congressman Lynch will continue to fight for policies that will make our economy work for everyone, not just the wealthy few.
