Dear Mr. Dimon:

Today, ___ people closed our JP Morgan Chase accounts. Collectively, we moved $_______ out of Bank of America.

This action was part of The New Bottom Line's Move Our Money campaign. In the first week alone, Move Our Money moved more than $53 million from big banks like yours. And that's just the beginning. Faith leaders and other community-based organizations from around the country are pledging to move their money. They are also organizing in cities, towns, villages, and counties as well as school boards and other municipal agencies to STOP doing business with the big banks, including yours.

We are moving our money because instead of investing in our families and community, you are taking from us – the 99% - to make yourself and your friends in the 1% wealthier.

Your bank crashed our economy, destroyed jobs, caused millions to lose their homes, and bankrupted city and state budgets, yet you refuse to pay your fair share of what it will take to rebuild our economy. Just a year after receiving nearly $200 billion in taxpayer bailouts, you joined other big banks in setting a record for CEO compensation. You received a 1,500% raise in 2010. And while we struggle to make ends meet, since 2003 you’ve spent $50 million to get elected officials to rig the system in your favor.

And you’re doing all of this with our money. You said, of the millions of Americans struggling to make their mortgage payments: “We should teach the American people, you’re supposed to meet your obligations, not run from them.”

We’re meeting our moral obligation by moving our money. We are part of a movement to take our money back and put it in institutions that share our values and invest in our communities. We’re creating a new bottom line that means good jobs, healthy communities, and a government that can’t be bought off with your big dollar contributions and lobbyists.

Through Move Our Money, we will tell our friends, families, congregations, and civic organizations to close their Chase accounts. We will also organize and demand that our elected officials ensure that our cities, counties and states divest from Chase until you:

Pay Your Fair Share: Stop draining government of revenue and pay the required 35 percent corporate income tax. Stop gaming the system through your 371 tax-sheltered subsidiaries.
Stabilize the Housing Market and Revitalizing the Economy: Reduce principal for all underwater homeowners to current market value. This would end the foreclosure crisis, reset the housing market, pump billions of dollars back into the economy and create over one million jobs a year.
Invest in American Jobs: Invest in and lend to small businesses, the primary vehicle for job creation in the US, as well as into additional job-generating investments.
End discriminatory lending practices: Stop all lending practices that result in fewer or lower-quality loans being made to communities of color and implement programs targeting communities of color to mitigate the impact of existing disparities.
