Reforms in the loan industry are bound for the governor.
Rebecca Gannon has the story.
Representative Chris Liese's reforms in pay day loans got the House and Senate's stamp of approval Monday afternoon.
Pay Day loans allow people to take money for a set amount of time. Then, they pay it back on their "pay day" so to speak, or when they have the money.
Liese, of West County, says the reforms will help more people who desperately need it.
The bill is now bound for Governor Holden's desk. This is the first major bill of the year to make it out of both chambers.
