Senators Warren, Leahy, Brown et al have proposed the following amendment that supposedly prohibits the use of poor personal credit report information from being used to ferret out undesirable employees (see a draft of the bill here: http://www.warren.senate.gov/files/documents/Bill%20text%20-%20Equal%20Employment%20for%20All%20Act.pdf) but who is going to make certain it is enforced and when it is not, how are the poor people, the 99% going to attain compensation for their economic injury?
It's a start but only that. If the system wasn't so 'rigged' against the 99% the financial and insurance industries that undergird every other industry wouldn't be using this tactic to begin with.
