Looks like a pragmatic tweak to protect smaller banks without upending the entire system—banking needs balance, not chaos.

This isn’t just banking policy; it’s a modest step toward financial justice, where money stays local and doesn’t fuel corporate greed.

Less loopholes for deposit brokers means more power for everyday depositors. About time someone looked out for Main Street!

Finally, a bill that tries to keep big banks in check—because our communities deserve better than Wall Street’s revolving door.

If you want deposits local, maybe encourage free markets more instead of peddling new rules nobody asked for.
