Bailout people before banks

*THE MORTGAGE BANKERS ASSOCIATION (MBA)*---
the biggest national lobby of all the banks---including the criminal 
predatory lenders, that are busy evicting your neighbors, relatives, 
friends and maybe you from your home---is holding it's annual policy 
conference in Washington D.C., on April 16 and 17. Their main goal is to 
make sure that bankers continue to get bailed out while families get 
tossed out!

Losing our homes: A NATIONAL EMERGENCY: And
it's getting worse. One in every 4 subprime mortgage victims are either 
in or near fore­closure. Soon, almost 10% of the homes of working 
families across the country could be in foreclosure. For these families,
this isn't a recession---it's a depression and
a national emergency that calls for emergency measures.

A mORATORIUM ON FORECLOSURES & EVICTIONS ---politicians have the 
authority to do it. Many may
not realize that Governors, State Legislatures, the President and 
Congress (as well as the department
of Housing and Urban Development) have the
statutory authority to declare a moratorium on home foreclosures and 
evictions during a time of either natural or economic emergency disaster 
(it's
important to include evictions because record numbers of renters are 
also losing their apartments).

This fight is for all of us. Come to D.C. on April 16 bring a bus, van, 
or a carload of people. Whether you are directly effected by the home 
foreclosure epidemic, or just outraged that the Government seems ready 
to give hundreds of billions of dollars to rescue banks from failing 
while doing nothing for those who are losing their homes, join people 
from around the country in Washington, D.C. on April 16 to shake up the 
bankers and wake up the government. Let's not wait until we're all homeless.

UNITE AND ORGANIZE=SURVIVAL Whether it's rising gas and food prices . 
the lack of health care . losing our jobs . having our wages cut . 
sinking further into credit card, student loan, or medical debt . or 
budget cuts . or the destruction of public housing . or ending this war 
that is costing lives and almost a half a billion dollars a day . 
surviving hard times is going require that we stick together and organize.
