House student credit card hearing is on CSpan website
You can watch Thursday's hearing of the Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit subcommittee at the CSpan website. The hearing explored the implications of aggressive credit card marketing to college students. Look for the hearing on this page (although after a few days it may move and you'll need to use the search engine). The hearing featured testimony by U.S. PIRG's Chris Lindstrom explaining the results of our report The Campus Credit Card Trap, available at www.truthaboutcredit.org. Other key witnesses were from the NY Attorney General's office, Campus Progress, and the University of Illinois at Chicago Student Government. All testimony and the House video of the hearing available here.
