Thank your[SIC] for calling.
This exists on the state of North Dakota's internet domain: "It is especially important for individuals to take ownership over their credit bureau score, otherwise known as FICO scores. This score is used by banks, insurance companies, credit cards, and employers to determine credit worthiness. It can affect your insurance premiums, interest rates on loans, and even whether or not you are hired for a job."
It is attributed to "Business Banker at Bremer Bank."
As we discussed, employers do not use credit scores. I looked into it. However, since that statement exists, I gave you these specific questions.
- What is the name of an employer who uses credit scores?
- What are you doing about the false information on the state of North Dakota's website?

"Money Management" changed. It said, "(Business Banker at Bremer Bank)."
Now it says, "(Banker)."
Governor Dalrymple, what is the name of the person who wrote the sentence, "This score is used by banks, insurance companies, credit cards, and employers to determine credit worthiness," quoting someone at Bremer Bank?

Ms. Beatty, I said nothing about "credit reports," so what are you referring to?
And, what gives you authority to change the state of North Dakota's website?
Finally, the statement is the statement. Do you mean that you can change history?
