make it illegal for employers to do credit checks on employees and not hire people based on credit reports.

Created by T.J. on November 14, 2012

I want it made illegal for employers to do credit checks on applicants. Make it illegal for employers to hire based on good credit. It is unfair and a form of discrimination. Especially in todays economy. It's a double edge sword. Who has good credit anymore with millions of people out of work and the foreclosure rate? Jobs don't pay well, then you can't afford to pay your bills and then because you can't afford to pay your bills ruining your credit you can't get a job. So the country is designed to hold people down.
