About this Petition:
When Congress passed the $700 billion bailout plan, the goal was to help Americans who are being hit hardest by the mortgage foreclosure crisis. Now that nearly half of that money is in the hands of big banks like Citigroup, JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, how is it being spent?

When Congress passed the $700 billion bailout plan, the goal was to help Americans who are being hit hardest by the mortgage foreclosure crisis. Now that nearly half of that money is in the hands of big banks like Citigroup, JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, how is it being spent?
No one's talking. The banks are refusing to say how our taxpayer dollars are being used. All we do know for sure is that the original problem that caused the economic collapse – housing foreclosures – is getting worse, not better.
Tell the top banking industry recipients of bailout funds that "we the people" have a right to know how our money is being spent! (show less)
The Desired Outcome of this Petition:
More transparency and accountability around the bailout!
More transparency and accountability around the bailout! (show less)
Page 1863 Signatures 61447 – 61479 To: CEOs of the Top Banks that have received bailout funds (Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, PNC Financial Services, US Bancorp and Suntrust)
We petition that…
All banks that have received federal bailout funds be required to disclose – immediately and in detail -- how the millions of taxpayer dollars have been spent.
Congress passed the $700 billion bailout plan with the intention of helping Americans who are being hit hardest by the mortgage foreclosure crisis.
Not only are Americans losing their homes and their jobs, but communities across the nation are also suffering as foreclosures continue to drain resources from services like local police, fire, rescue and public education. The bailout funds must address these issues. And the first step to assess whether the bailout program is working is a complete accounting of how the money is being spent.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
