Seattle Activists Target JP Morgan Chase

Activists in Seattle have been busy lately targeting their local JP Morgan Chase branches.

Here’s a description of last Saturday’s protest from Chad in Seattle:

“It was another fun filled day of protest at Chase Bank. A lot of people stopped and chatted with us and a lot of info was handed out to the community. The highlight of the day was when a good friend of mine came to show her support for us and to put an end to the funding of MTR. She walked into the bank and closed out her account in the name of MTR.”

Its way past time for JP Morgan Chase to make a firm commitment to stop financing mountaintop removal coal mining. Thanks to Chad and his fellow activists in Seattle for keeping the pressure on!
