Those wishing to express outrage can do so at Showdown In Chicago on October 25-27.



Showdown is a series of demonstrations when thousands of Americans - retirees, farmers, workers, homeowners, renters, students, clergy, and small business owners - come together on the streets of Chicago to demand a banking system that puts the American people first and a Congress that makes it happen!



Dean Baker, Co-Director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, says Won't You Please Come to Chicago?



A bill that would require the Fed to disclose what it did with more than $2 trillion in loans to banks and other financial institutions was originally co-sponsored by Ron Paul and Alan Grayson, one of the most conservative and one of the most progressive members of Congress. Due to public pressure, it now has more than 270 co-sponsors.

Reining in the power of the financial industry will be a long hard fought war, but it is one that must be fought.
