"Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner is pushing a settlement with the big banks and Wall Street firms that caused the mortgage crisisletting them get away with a slap on the wrist.
Wall Street bankers have not faced any serious punishment for the widespread fraud that crashed our whole economypushing bad loans, lying to investors, forging foreclosure documentsand banks are making profits again while homeowners continue to suffer.
Unbelievably, Geithner wants state attorneys general to agree to a sweetheart deal where these banks would pay only $20 billiona fraction of what they could owe if fully prosecutedand would get immunity from investigation and prosecution of the criminal greed, negligence, and fraud that caused this crisis. This would eliminate any leverage regulators have to pressure banks to help out the homeowners they've hurt."
Let your representatives know American homeowners should come first, not the greedy unethical banks. Tell Treasury Secretary Geithner, "No more sweetheart deals for Wall Street. Let states investigate and prosecute the crimes that crashed our economy."
