A letter went out this week to Attorneys General of all fifty states: it is time to get tough on the fraudulent, unjust practices of banks and other financial institutions foreclosing on the homes of hardworking people. Already banks have had to admit they have not followed legal requirements in processing foreclosures. What needs to be uncovered is the full extent of the carelessness, fraud, and predation by the financially powerful institutions who believe they can get by with it because they can afford the lawyers that most of us cannot.
But each state has an Attorney General who works for us. They already have initiated action on foreclosure fraud. The lead investigator, AG Tom Miller of Iowa, has agreed to work with us in pushing this agenda forward. The letter below is the first page of our expanded agenda to deal with key aspects of the foreclosure crisis, "The Homeowner's Bottom Line." The letter was cc'ed to AGs from all 50 states.
