To: Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General of New York State

Support Eric Schneiderman's Investigation of the Corporate Banking Industry

Let New York Attorney General Schneiderman know that the people stand with his fight to preserve our right to hold the banks accountable for the unscrupulous practices that brought financial ruin to so many.

Support his investigation into the banking industry by signing this petition.

Why is this important?

After weeks of intense pressure from the Obama Administration and from Schneiderman’s fellow attorneys general to support a broad settlement that would let the big banks off easy for the questionable lending practices that caused our country’s housing crisis, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman was removed from a committee of state attorneys general investigating the banking industry’s mortgage abuses.

Now Schneiderman is preparing to investigate Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase and other major financial institutions for their misconduct in the mortgage markets.
