Crash the Big Banks' Party

Did you know you're throwing a party this weekend? Well, you're paying for it but you're not invited.

It's the American Bankers Association (ABA) conference in Chicago. The ABA is the lobbying group that gets millions of our tax dollars from America's bailed out banks.

Here are some of the highlights for their meeting:

  • a luxurious riverboat cruise
  • a historical mansion tour
  • a roaring 1920s big band gala
  • celebrity appearances by Newt Gingrich & George Will
With all the fun on our dime, it seems like the big bankers should at least set aside some time to meet with taxpayers! Click here to demand a meeting: http://action.seiu.org/bankparty

Crash the party

Gathering outside the ABA conference will be more than 5,000 taxpayers from all over the US. All we're asking for is a meeting with the banks. We want to tell them to stop using our money to lobby against financial reform. Before we go, though, we're delivering to the ABA signatures from taxpayers across the country, asking them to meet with us.

This is going to be the largest protest against bank greed since the financial meltdown began. Even if you can't be in Chicago, will you make yourself a part of it? http://action.seiu.org/bankparty
