## Resource

Senator Ramon Alleyne is rallying for sweeping reforms to hold financial wrongdoers accountable when banks collapse, arguing depositors deserve justice—not just insurance—after losing lifetimes of savings. He’s pushing the Protection of Depositors Bill to empower regulators to pursue those responsible, inspired by foreign models that act swiftly on red flags. Alleyne also calls for extending these safeguards to the insurance sector, where people trust their investments just as they trust their bank accounts, and wants to expand coverage to credit unions up to $25,000.
