Republican Wall Street Wants to Lose Faces NC Crisis

Representative Walter Jones was a rare Republican who backed tough banking regulations after the 2008 economic collapse. Now Wall Street wants him out of office.

JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co. are lining up behind Jones’ primary challenger, Taylor Griffin, an aide in President George W. Bush’s Treasury Department who later worked for groups that advocated in Washington for the biggest financial services companies.
