Statement by AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka on Record Wall Street Bonuses
January 19, 2010 Hard-working Americans will not be ATMs for Wall Street.
Just a year ago, Wall Street banks pleaded for taxpayers to bail them out to save us all from financial disaster. We did. So now that banks and securities firms are on their feet again, whats their response?
A record $145 billion in executive bonuses for 2009a year when more than four

Hard-working Americans will not be ATMs for Wall Street. Today the AFL-CIO demands that Wall Street stop bankrupting America.
