Today, the U.S. Senate is likely to vote on the nomination of Sheila Bair to be the next Chair of the FDIC.
Why is this important to our campaign?
As Chairman of the FDIC, Ms. Bair will have the ability to decide on Wal-Mart’s banking application. How the FDIC handles the Wal-Mart issue is both critical to our campaign and of great importance to the future of the U.S. banking system.
Banking and commerce must remain separate. Both Alan Greenspan and Ben Bernanke agree.
Now it’s your turn. Please take action immediately. Call or email your U.S. Senator and tell them the Senate should not consider the Bair nomination until we have more information on how Ms. Bair feels about the separation of commerce and banking.
