Students around the country are getting together on Facebook to tell Congress that they should put students over banks! Groups are going up in each state, and each group will serve as a petition to the state’s Senators. The petitions call on Congress to support President Obama’s plan to cut wasteful subsidies to banks, and use the estimated $94 billion in savings to provide grants for students.

Campus Progress and partner organizations (PIRGs, USSA, etc.) will make sure to let Senators know about the petitions. Join your state’s petition, and invite your friends! You can find a link to your state’s group here:
