Make Wall Street Pay Campaign
At the beginning of 2009, our Immigrant Inclusion Project evolved into a new campaign – Make Wall Street Pay. Our goal has been to shift public debate on the economic crisis from ignoring the needs of immigrants and people of color (and in fact justifying the increasing right-wing racist attacks on them) to the source: the international financial institutions which caused the current crisis in the U.S., Mexico, and worldwide as well as the mid-1990s takeover of Mexican banks that resulted in families losing homes and businesses and decimated the social infrastructure, leading to the subsequent massive wave of migration by economic refugees to the U.S.

We are demanding that our states adopt legislation to charge a fee to recipients of more than 1 billion dollars in tax-free federal subsidies within their jurisdictions and use the proceeds for public health services.
