Rally and March to the site of the new Chase Bank For the sake of our beloved planet's web of life, we will gather at Pulaski Park for a rally, followed by marching to King and Main Streets, to spread the word that Chase Bank is destroying the climate by financing the fossil fuel industry and that no one should bank at Chase. This event is coordinated with National Day of Action to Stop Dirty Banks sponsored by Third Act. We encourage everyone to move your money out of Chase Bank, Bank of America, TD Bank, and other big banks that finance fossil fuels. Let's get rid of our credit cards managed by these banks.
