"The Occupy Wall Street movement has put economic justice in the spotlight. More and more people are talking about how to hold Big Banks accountable—and how to rebuild the economy for everyone.

That's why we're getting together for "Make Wall Street Pay" meetings October 22-26 to discuss what we can do locally to fight back against Wall Street. From helping homeowners fight foreclosures to encouraging municipalities, schools, and organizations to move their money to local banks to protesting at Bank of America or Chase, we'll come together and plan actions we can take during November.

How is this connected to Occupy Wall Street? Our goal is to launch targeted local campaigns to complement the amazing work being done by brave Occupy Wall Street protesters—something MoveOn members around the country have been asking for. And we'll continue to do everything we can to support and stand in solidarity with #Occupy. "

At this meeting, we'll discuss what this powerful moment means for our local communities. We'll brainstorm ideas for upcoming days of action on Nov. 5th & Nov. 17th, local campaigns targeting Big Banks, and how we can be in solidarity with the Occupy movement and Unions. We are fortunate to have as a guest Erica from the Occupy group here in Albuquerque. Can you join MoveOn members near you to determine the best way to make Wall Street pay in your community?"
