Donald Trump got elected because he promised Americans he would stand up to Wall Street and “drain the swamp” of corporate greed and corruption. Now he’s going to slash the financial regulations that were put in place to prevent another economic crash like the one we saw in 2008.

Most of us remember the recklessness and greed on Wall Street that led to the worst economic crash since the Great Depression. Ordinary Americans were ruined. They lost their homes and savings -- while the bankers and bond traders responsible got bailouts and bonuses.

The only good thing to come out of the Great Recession was Dodd-Frank, a series of financial regulations that protects consumers from repeating history. Except Donald Trump is preparing to gut the whole piece of legislation -- putting the livelihoods of millions of Americans at risk so that Wall Street can rake in even more profit.

Tell Congress this is a complete betrayal of what Americans voted for. Save the Dodd-Frank Wall Street regulations.

President Trump is getting ready to hand out favors to his Wall Street buddies. They’ll be able to borrow more money, dodge accountability and go back to the same old tricks that nearly ruined the world’s economy. If Dodd-Frank gets slashed, we better get ready for another multi-billion dollar bailout of the banking industry -- all paid for with our tax dollars.

If we remain complacent on Wall Street greed, we’ll all be punished. These regulations get cut because concerned Americans like us stop paying attention. There’s so much terrible news coming out of the White House every day it’s easy to lose track -- but that’s what Trump and his cronies are counting on. And it’s exactly why we need to force Congress to preserve Dodd-Frank.

Join us as we demand that Congress stands up for Americans, not the banks. Save Dodd-Frank!
