Stand with the 99%
Support economic policy that works for all Americans
As people take to the streets to protest rising inequality, our members are standing with the 99% for an economy that works for everyone, not just the richest 1%. Over 80,000 people have pledged to move their money and pressured Congress to make it easier. We delivered over 54,000 thank you notes to Occupy Wall Street. And seven bold Congressional candidates from across the country delivered over 35,000 petition signatures to Republican Speaker John Boehner in front of the media. We’ll continue to keep up the pressure on big banks and Congress.
