Job Description

Jobs running urgent campaigns.

We've just put in place new consumer protections to rein in Wall Street, yet before those policies can even be implemented big banks are sending their army of lobbyists to convince policy-makers to weaken them and let them off the hook.

It doesn’t take another massive financial meltdown—or another oil spill, or another gay marriage ban—to see that we’ve got work to do. Too often, powerful special interests use their money and influence to block progress on consumer protections and social justice issues and convince decision makers to look the other way as they rip off consumers and put our environment at risk.

To win we’re going to need people—lots of people—to join the call for change.
