In spite of the stormy weather in D.C. last week Thursday, our Bank Whistleblowers United press conference got off to a rousing start. William Black and I were able to make it to D.C.; Michael Winston, stranded en route, called in on his cell, and Gary Aguirre joined us by Skype.
Hosted by Campaign for America’s Future Co-Director Robert Borosage kicked it off by pulling no punches: “Millions of Americans were devastated by this financial crisis and the great recession. They then watched the banks get bailed out even as homeowners were left to sink. The banks ended up bigger and more concentrated than ever while most Americans still have not recovered from the ground lost in that recession.”
Introducing our initiative and the proposal we’ve presented to the presidential candidates, he stated, “each risked their careers to blow the whistle on what the FBI termed was an epidemic of fraud on Wall Street.”
