Showdown On K Street Today!

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

They just don’t get it. Banks and their lobbyists pocketed hundreds of billions in taxpayer funds and promptly turned around and spent millions lobbying against solutions to the crisis they created. Join us today at the "Showdown on K Street" (11:45a at MacPherson Square, Vermont & K) as we take to the streets to demand that the banks pay their share and create jobs, and that Congress fix the broken and corrupt system. “When city services in DC are being slashed and union members are  being laid off left and right, we need our national political leaders to invest money in our local governments, not in propping up banks who do nothing to create jobs," says Mackenzie Baris of DC Jobs with Justice.
