The vote on financial reform looks like it will be incredibly close. The time to act is now. Coffee Party USA is delivering a message to our Senators: Please wake up and smell the coffee: Americans wantstrong financial reform. We want our voices on Main St to be heard over Wall St's even though the Big Bailed-Out Banks are spending 1.4m a day employing 35 lobbying firms on K St to stop reform.http://www.coffeepartyusa.com and http://www.facebook.com/coffeepartyShot at Showdown on Wall St Rally on April 29, 2010. Video directed/shot/cut by George Sosa. Music by Jon Lancelot. Featuring Jon Lancelot and Bob Pargament, Coffee Party NY organizers.
