Greetings,

 

Reminder:  A year ago October 1st, Congress bailed out the banks and insurers,

claiming they were 'too big to fail.'
 

They got bailed out; we got sold out!

 

From In These Times, 'Unions, progressives to Launch Wall St. Reform Drives' ,

"Unions and progressive coalitions are seeking to add grass-roots organizing power to President Obama's calls for financial reform, with stepped up activism from the AFL-CIO, Jobs With Justice and the progressive Americans for Financial Reform coalition all starting this week.

Following last week's AFL-CIO convention that aimed to jump-start reform drives and the union movement, new president Richard Trumka and other leaders will be taking their case for economic reform to Wall Street and the  public."

Here in Columbus, we amplify that call for Wall Street Reform, Thursday Oct. 1st
