The Progressive Change Campaign Committee and partners will deliver all signatures and notes to Sanders' DC office -- and by standing up for him, we can show other senators we'll get their back if they buck Wall Street Sanders explained his decision this way: “The American people overwhelmingly voted last year for a change in our national priorities to put the interests of ordinary people ahead of the greed of Wall Street and the wealthy few. What the American people did not bargain for was another four years for one of the key architects of the Bush economy.” “People want a new direction and people are asking, where was the Fed? How did the Fed allow this to happen, when one of their mandates is to oversee the safety and soundness of the banking system?” “It’s time for a change at the Fed.”
Another progressive senator, Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), said Monday that Bernanke needs to "start giving a red hot damn about the American public." And Bernanke has refused Bernie Sanders' and Rep. Alan Grayson's (D-FL) demand that the Federal Reserve tell Congress which banks received trillions in taxpayer bailouts. Click here to thank Sanders for standing up to Wall Street and for being a bold progressive. We won't let Bernie Sanders get thrown under the bus. Together, we can let him know we have his back. Thanks all... |
