Demand Minnesota politicians: Tax the rich! Put
a moratorium on home foreclosures!
Join us for an informational meeting of the Minnesota
Coalition for a People’s Bailout on
Tuesday, January 3
7:00 p.m.
at Walker Community Methodist Church
3104 16th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55407
This upcoming legislative session, the MN
Coalition for a People’s Bailout will push for legislation that
puts a moratorium on home foreclosures and the eviction of tenants
from foreclosed properties. The effect of this bill would be to
end foreclosures for the next two years.
We will also be pushing for a bill that will
dramatically raise taxes on the rich. There is no good reason that
the poor and working people should pay for an economic crisis that
has been created by the banks and wealthy investors.
The time is right to have a real debate here in
Minnesota. The Occupy movement is changing the political landscape
of this country. People are outraged at the arrogance, power and
privilege of the 1%.
The Minnesota Coalition for a People’s Bailout
is made up of trade unionists, welfare rights, anti-war, immigrant
rights and community groups -- people who want do something about
the direction this state is heading in.
On January 3, we will be making plans for a
serious fight at the State Capitol. We have already contacted
politicians about our plans for a Foreclosure Moratorium and Tax
bill. Bring your ideas and energy. Together we will fight back!
See you there,
--Linden Gawboy,
for the MN Coalition for People's Bailout
