Occupy Portland’s Bank Action, a weekly outreach event to encourage individuals and small businesses to move their money out of big banks and into local credit unions, will be taking place outside of the Wells Fargo at 38th and Hawthorne from noon to 6pm this Friday.  Feel free to join us as we spread the word.  If you would like to get more involved the next Occupy the Banks planning meeting is on Monday, June 18th at the First Unitarian Church (Salmon and 12th) from 6-8pm.

Occupy the Banks is designed to be an on-going weekly action hosted by Occupy Portland in collaboration with organizations, groups, or community members to apply continuous coordinated pressure on the three mega-banks, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan Chase.

The general plan for Occupy the Banks is that three Fridays per month we host an action at any branch of one of the three target banks, on the fourth Friday we focus on outreaching to small businesses about the value of moving their money, while offering tools to facilitate that transition.

Ultimately, these actions will build towards a national day of action on November 2nd, to organize a significant number of people, organizations, and businesses to “Move Your Money” before the November 6th elections.

Friday, June 15th, we will be outside Wells Fargo at 38th and Hawthorne from 12 – 6pm.

Also, our next planning session will be Monday, June 18th at the First Unitarian Church (Salmon and 12th) from 6-8pm.
