| We can bring Wall Street to justice—if the president orders a full federal investigation. Can you attend an event in Pittsburgh on Thursday, January 19, to demand that he stand up for the 99%? |
Dear MoveOn member,
We have a problem.
Maybe you've heard about the "sweetheart" deal that would let the biggest banks avoid a full investigation for their role in causing the housing crisis. Some in President Obama's administration are supporting this bad deal.1 So we're calling on the president to take bold action to hold Wall Street accountable and demand a real investigation.
To make sure the president gets our message, this Thursday we're protesting Bank of America, Chase, Wells Fargo, and other 1% banks that ravaged our economy. We'll urge the president to order a federal investigation Wall Street—and show him the culprits to investigate. By taking just one hour out of your day, you'll join with thousands more from the 99% to make sure the president hears us loud and clear.
Can you help fight Wall Street by attending an event in Pittsburgh on Thursday?
Momentum is building for an investigation. More than 226,000 MoveOn members signed a petition calling on the president to order a full investigation of Wall Street and more groups are joining the call for a "full federal investigation" every day. Can you maximize our impact by attending an event in Pittsburgh on Thursday?
The 99% can't take more of a system that's rigged for the 1%. With more Americans disgusted that those who crashed our economy haven't been brought to justice—and given that it's an election year—we can change the status quo. The president has taken important steps to stand up for the 99%, but we need more bold leadership from him. Let's seize this opportunity and get a victory for all of us.
Thanks for all you do.
–Elena, Stephen, Sarah, Mark, and the rest of the team
