STOP BIG BANK BONUSES

This is not the year for big bank executives to rake in yet another round of multi-million dollar bonuses.

Families, homeowners, and those of us looking for jobs are all struggling, but big banks continue to foreclose on families, withhold affordable credit, fund predatory payday lenders and refuse to pay their fair share of taxes.

Now, this holiday season, big bank executives are projected to award themselves billions of dollars in bonuses. It’s time to set them straight.

Tell Bank of America’s Brian Moynihan, JP Morgan Chase’s Jamie Dimon and Wells Fargo’s John Stumpf to forgo their multi-million dollar bonuses and invest in America IMMEDIATELY. Sign the letter to bank executives today >>

Big banks can help rebuild America by writing down principal balances for families who are underwater or facing foreclosure, lending to small businesses to get the economy moving again, and paying their fair share of taxes. For perspective, the $143 billion in bonuses and compensation banks handed out last year could extend unemployment coverage for each of the 15 million unemployed workers in the United States by more than seven months. $143 billion could buy individual health insurance plans for 65 percent of the nation's uninsured, changing the lives of more than 29 million people in the process.

But big bank executives won’t act unless you demand it. We will soon deliver this letter and message to top big bank execs and board members across the country.
