Hi carl,
I got another notice on the 21st century Glass Steagall act. IT said that
Cantwell and John McCain are co-sponsoring the bill along with Warren.
At least cantwell gets it right sometimes.

For whatever it's worth, I emailed both of my U.S. Senators, Patty Murray
and Maria Cantwell. Two of the Turncoat Senators who voted for Fast Track.
This is another real life example of what happens when well meaning citizens
become public officials. When they are in office long enough, they become
contaminated. If they weren't that way to begin with. Friends tell me,
"You have to vote for them.
Their opponents are so much worse." Well, try explaining that to the low
paid workers in Washington State who will find their job opportunities
headed overseas. I'll vote for anyone who represents Labor. That will
exclude both of our current Pretenders.

Robert,

Elizabeth Warren - the Harvard professor turned consumer crusader
turned U.S. senator - has just re-introduced the 21st Century
Glass-Steagall Act.

This is a big deal.

Join Public Citizen in calling on Congress to reinstate Glass-Steagall.

The original Glass-Steagall Act was a major reform passed in the
aftermath of the 1929 Great Depression.

For nearly seven decades, it kept the federally insured banks that
working families use small and simple - and prevented them from
engaging in reckless speculation and gambling.

For nearly seven decades, Wall Street lobbied for its repeal.

It was repealed in 1999. You know what happened to our economy in 2008.

Now the "too big to fail" banks are even more bloated than they were
before the 2008 crash.

Sen. Warren's 21st Century Glass-Steagall Act would require federally
insured banks to separate their high-risk financial tinkering from
ordinary commercial banking services used by working families.

This is not a Democratic solution or a Republican solution. It is a
commonsense solution.

The bipartisan bill's supporters hail from across the political
spectrum, from Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

Urge your members of Congress to bring back Glass-Steagall.
