To keep Warren’s momentum going, we’re going to Citigroup HQ this Thursday at 11am to show that we’ve had enough and to call on Congress to break up the “too big to fail” banks like Citigroup.
Where: Citi headquarters, 399 Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan
When: Thursday at 10:40am
Who: PCCC leaders, PCCC members, Zephyr Teachout, Working Families Party, other community partners — media invited
“Many Wall Street institutions have exerted extraordinary influence in Washington’s corridors of power, but Citigroup has risen above the others… There’s a lot of talk coming from Citigroup about how the Dodd-Frank Act isn’t perfect. So let me say this to anyone who is listening at Citi: I agree with you. Dodd-Frank isn’t perfect. It should have broken you into pieces.” — Elizabeth Warren
Citigroup just wrote the law repealing a major piece of Wall Street reform. For too long, the Big Banks have been getting away with buying our democracy in order to pad their profits. Elizabeth Warren shined the national spotlight on this issue — and made big news this past week by calling for Citigroup to be broken into pieces.
