Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Sunday she was ready to work on a 10% cap on credit-card interest rates and housing legislation, while promising corporate investigations alongside bills aimed at lowering costs for families.
“President Trump himself said that he wants to reduce interest rates on credit cards to 10%. I got the bill, I’m ready to go,” the Massachusetts Democrat said in an interview that aired on Face the Nation, according to the full interview transcript. On housing, she added: “We’re ready. We have the bills ready to go.” Those comments did not announce an agreement with the White House or an enacted credit-card cap.
Asked whether her focus would be legislation or investigations, Warren said Democrats had to do both. “But I do want to be clear: if you’ve been making your profits by cheating American families and scamming your investors, you better get ready for some investigations, serious ones.” She did not identify particular subpoena targets, saying investigators needed to go through the steps.
Warren also backed tighter restrictions on chip exports to China and said lowering family costs and addressing corruption would guide her work. Her comments described legislative and oversight priorities, not newly issued subpoenas or findings of wrongdoing against a named company.
