Miami Workers Center and Florida New Majority Protestors against Bank Foreclosures

The announcement of the Department of Justice fining Bank of America's loan company Countrywide 335 Million dollars for their practices with communities of color has shown that the call by Floridians is not only justified but necessary to be expanded to stamp out the greater crimes created by the housing crisis that has swept the nation. Floridians in Miami and Orlando have stepped up and made a public outcry to President Obama and the state’s Attorney Generals to make these banks accountable for the mess they created.

This past Wednesday a new coalition was formed named “Floridians for a Fair Settlement” which includes Florida New Majority, PICO Florida, FOCUS Orlando, Miami Workers Center, ForeclosureHamlet.org, 4closurefraud.org, Organize Now, Unite Here Local 355, SEIU 1199 and a growing number of groups, in order to call on the Obama administration to conduct a full investigation into the fraud that created the housing crisis and to hold the bank and all those responsible accountable.

The coalition will now focus as a next step to put its full weight behind PICO Florida's effort to fight against foreclosure related bills in the Florida legislature that will further negatively impact the communities of color. The coalition will continue to keep vigil on this situation and inform all as things develop.
