President's Statement on Senate Passing Bankruptcy Legislation

STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT

I applaud the strong bipartisan vote in the Senate to curb abuses of the bankruptcy system. By reforming the system with this commonsense approach, more Americans - especially lower-income Americans - will have greater access to credit. I urge the House to act quickly on bankruptcy legislation.
