CALL TO ACTION: Stop the bankruptcy bill in the House

[Guest guest]

There is a groundswell of opposition building to let our members of the House of

Representatives know just how strongly we object to the so-called " Bankrutpcy

Abuse Prevention " bill that must still be voted on there. Remember, in the

House they are all up for re-election in 2006.

 

The only groups that could possibly support this slanted piece of legislation

are the credit card companies who wrote it word for word, and the elite

corporate frauds who still get to keep their precious asset protection trusts.

The rest of us, regardless of medical catastophe, identity theft, or

overextended military deployment are left to the mercy of unlimited interest

rates and compounding late charges. Here's a one click form you can use to

They didn't even have the common decency of raising the minimum wage or extend

some protection for the elderly to protect the home they may have lived in all

their lives. Every possible amendment that might have brought some fairness or

balance to this drastic revision of the law was shot down by the Senate.

 

What's not to hate about this bill? It creates such a legal minefield that the

cost of filing for bankruptcy must dramatically increase, all the while the

credit card corporate campaign contributors have nearly TRIPLED their profits in

the last 10 years to over $31 billion dollars. Democrats.com already has their

own action page on this too.

Moderate commentators have called this bill " heinous, despicable and inhumane " ,

a " debt slavery " law. But what do you say? What will it take to get you to to

speak out NOW with just the single click of a mouse? The House will interrupt

their vacations with parliamentary tricks in the middle of the night to

grandstand and exploit a family tragedy, but when are they going to show some

backbone to fight for you? Isn't it time to finally really tell them off? It's

up to us alone.
