Fund the fight to stop Wall Street from destroying the safeguards that help prevent another financial crisis now >>
In 2008, Wall Street recklessness crashed the global economy and left families devastated. To prevent it from happening again, regulators put in place strong capital standards so big banks would be sturdy enough to avoid taxpayer bailouts.
Now, the Federal Reserve and other federal agencies are working to roll those safeguards back. Their proposal reduces capital and leverage requirements for the largest banks, exactly the kind of deregulation that magnifies risk and makes the entire system more fragile.
Americans for Financial Reform is leading the fight against this dangerous rollback. We’re mobilizing pressure to stop Wall Street’s lobbyists from weakening the rules that protect us all.
This is AFR’s strength: deep policy expertise, relentless advocacy, and the ability to make sure the voices of families and communities matter more than Wall Street’s greed. But to keep doing this work, we need you with us.
Contribute to Americans for Financial Reform and fund the fight to stop the rollback of bank capital safeguards and keep Wall Street from engineering the next crash now.
