Wells Fargo account holders have enormous purchasing power. NACA seeks to unite these customers, along with NACA members, Wells Fargo employees and concerned people to:

• 参与抗议——参加示威和抗议，让富国银行的高管和董事承担个人责任。
• 加入诉讼——确定虚假账户丑闻的受害者，并鼓励他们与其他人一起对富国银行采取法律行动。
• Customers Switch Banks — Take money to a different bank and leverage customers immense purchasing power to show Wells Fargo executives and directors the grave repercussions of Well’s predatory practices.    
• 成为举报人 — 鼓励现任和前任富国银行员工成为该活动的一部分。作为前任或现任员工，您处于独特的位置，可以通过共享关键信息来支持和加入 Wells Fargo Justice 活动，从而实现真正的变革。

NACA’s Wells Fargo Justice Campaign began on April 25th when NACA’s CEO Bruce Marks and others confronted Wells Fargo’s CEO Tim Sloan during the Wells Fargo’s annual meeting in Jacksonville, Florida.  Bruce Marks demanded answers in order to hold the CEO and their board of directors accountable but was forcibly removed.  To hear the confrontation at Well’s annual meeting 点击这里.

Marks said, “NACA, our Members and many others are in a powerful position to hold Wells Fargo’s executives and board of directors personally accountable for the bank’s predatory practices. Hundreds of thousands of NACA members have collectively over $17 Billion in balances with Wells Fargo in bank accounts, car loans, student loans, personal loans and mortgages.” Marks continues, “Wells Fargo acknowledged they have been exploiting their customers and even their own employees for over 15 years, yet their apology and cosmetic changes are not enough“

The government has taken an important step in downgrading Wells Fargo’s CRA rating to “Needs Improvement” which is the worst of any major bank, but more needs to be done.
