Stop Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac executives from getting $1 million bonuses

Below is a copy of an email I recently recieved. This sounds like something that might be worth taking a few minutes to do.

Dear Friend,

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-controlled companies that started the financial mess we are in, are set to give $1 million bonuses to some of their executives. These two companies were bailed out by our government at the cost of hundreds of billions of dollars. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac plan to do the same thing AIG did with their tax-money bailout - give some executives $1million bonuses.

Don't let it happen!

Please send an e-mail to your senators telling them not to approve these bonuses! The four largest recipients of political donations by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from 1989 through 2008 were Sen. Chris Dodd ($133,900), Sen. John Kerry ($111,000), President Barack Obama ($105,849), and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ($75,550).

Do it today before it is too late. And please forward this to all your friends and family. Your Senators need to hear from you today!

Take Action!
Send an e-mail to your senators telling them not to approve these bonuses!
