CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO FOUGHT THE BANKS IN 2011

Dec 29, 2011

BY NANCY KOERBER

Because of your hard work and support this year hundreds of families are “home” for the holidays that would otherwise have been kicked to the curb by the Banksters. And because we are standing together, we’ve sent Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Chase and the others something better than coal this year: hundreds of court cases across the state challenging their fraudulent practices and exposing them in the courts and media!

2011 was a year of victories as homeowners, small business owners and community members united in action to hold Big Banks accountable, stop foreclosure, and bring our money back to Main Street!

We have so much to be proud of this year! Here are some of the things we’ve achieved together:

Stopped Big Bank sponsored legislation
Helped to set landmark legal precedent that dismissed 75% of pending foreclosures in Oregon
Educated and empowered more than 800 homeowner families
Participated with Occupy Wall Street in National Move Your Money Day Nov 5th that resulted in 700,000 big bank accounts being closed
Brought together lawmaker allies from the left and the right to address foreclosure in Oregon, and kept hundreds of homeowners in their homes!

We are so powerful together! And this is only the beginning. We know the Banksters will be back in 2012 pestering our legislators, serving foreclosure notices to thousands in our communities and cheating our counties out of urgently needed revenues. But we’ll be ready for them. Your support helps fund our research and legal strategy, education and outreach to protect Main Street, hold the banks accountable and bring our money back in 2012!

Here are three simple things you can do right now to hold the banks accountable:
