Wall Street private equity firms are desperate to rebrand themselves. They are pushing to access trillions of dollars in 401(k) retirement savings. For years, these firms have been known as corporate raiders, bankrupting hospitals, shuttering nursing homes, laying off workers, and leaving communities in crisis. Now they are spending millions on glossy PR campaigns and sports sponsorships to convince ordinary Americans to trust them with their futures.
No marketing campaign can erase the truth. People know exactly what private equity does: strip assets, extract fees, and walk away richer while working families are left with the wreckage. Allowing them into the 401(k) market would hand them a $12 trillion jackpot and put the retirement security of millions of people at risk.
Americans for Financial Reform is leading the fight to stop them. We are exposing their lies in the media, equipping lawmakers with hard evidence, and building grassroots power across the country to demand protections for retirement savings. We are making sure their rebrand fails and their record of destruction is front and center.
This is about protecting retirement security for every worker in the US. With your support, AFR will keep up the pressure, mobilize our networks, and make sure private equity never gets away with looting our future.
Contribute to Americans for Financial Reform and fund the fight to stop private equity from looting our retirement savings now.
