No More Wall Street Giveaways
By the AFL-CIO
Every single challenge faced by working people can be traced back to the greed of powerful corporations and CEOs, which is why America’s leaders should be holding Wall Street accountable, not weakening consumer protections and opening the door to risky banking practices and predatory lending.
Working people call on our elected leaders to oppose legislation from Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) to roll back and eliminate sections of the 2010 Dodd–Frank Act. Congress should be building on that landmark law so working families and our communities can thrive.
The bill from Sen. Crapo to roll back or end some banking regulations is bipartisan corporate welfare, and working families will not stand for it.
Every single challenge working people face, from trade to wages to retirement security and infrastructure, has made Wall Street richer and Main Street poorer.
Politicians who says they support working families should vote NO on this bad Crapo bill.
Congress should be tightening regulations on Wall Street, strengthening consumer protections and doing everything in its power to ensure Wall Street is the servant of Main Street, not the other way around.
The focus of America’s independent labor movement is always on creating a fair, equitable and good economy, so working people and our communities can enjoy broadly shared prosperity.
