Protest the "Bailout Bandits" - Oct 27


Community and Labor organizations are coming to Chicago from across the country to protest the "Bailout Bandits," at the American Bankers Association convention in Chicago.

These big banks wrecked our economy, then took bailouts adding up to $15,000 for every man, woman and child in the country, then they pushed people out of jobs and homes while giving themselves record bonuses.

Victory for the Bledsoe Family

Weeks of grassroots action, including collecting over 700 support postcards from neighbors, has led HUD, IHDA and Northpoint to work out a plan to keep the Bledsoe Family in their Rogers Park home.

Check out more of the story and video of the action at HUD here.
