Tell Mary Jo White to recuse herself from her conflict of interest

Mary Jo White, the famously soft-on-Wall-Street chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, just got exposed in a massive conflict of interest.

She was just revealed trying to use her power as SEC Chair to push out the tough leader of the country’s accounting watchdog board – and replace him with someone who will take it easy on the Wall Street firms her husband’s law firm represents.

Mary Jo White’s husband is on the advisory group of that same accounting watchdog board – a fact his law firm has brazenly marketed to gain Wall Street clients looking for easy treatment.

When reporters exposed their conflict of interest, her husband's law firm tried to quickly scrub its website of evidence it marketed his involvement at the accounting watchdog board – but it got caught red handed.

Sign the petition to tell Mary Jo White to recuse herself immediately from the selection of the next accounting watchdog, because of her unacceptable conflict of interest.
