Obama Meets With Members Of Credit Card Industry At White House
(AFP OUT) U.S. President Barack Obama (C) talks to the news media after a meeting with officials from the credit card industry, including Discover Financial Services CEO David Nelms (L) and Barclaycard US CEO Lloyd Wirshba, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner (2nd L) and Senior White House Advisor Valerie Jarrett at the White House April 23, 2009 in Washington, DC. CEOs from Visa, Mastercard, American Express and the credit card divisions at about a dozen of the largest banks were invited to speak with Obama about high fees and predatory lending practices. The timing is hard for the companies as the House Financial Services Committee approved legislation cracking down on credit card billing practices on Wednesday.
