On Wednesday, March 14, at 5:00pm Occupy Homes MN held a march to US Bank CEO Richard Davis’ Minneapolis home as part of the Occupy Homes national week of action on the banks.

“We want to respectfully ask Mr. Davis and US Bank to work with customers like me to keep us in our homes. We bailed them out with our tax dollars when they were in trouble at the start of the housing crisis they created, now we need them to work with us to help stabilize our communities, instead of tearing them apart,” said Monique White

Since October, protesters have attempted to bring attention to Minneapolis-headquartered US Bank for their ongoing role in the foreclosure crisis. While speaking at an event hosted by the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, Davis, whose 2011 total compensation topped $18 million, allegedly told homeowners fighting foreclosure and their supporters rallying outside the event to “get over it.’

“These executives have been making life hell for the average American, while they’re making record profits and have a comfy home to sleep in. It’s up to us to stand together and pressure the banks to make things right with the American people. If they can negotiate a solution with me, there’s no reason they can’t do the same for millions of other homeowners fighting to keep a roof over their family’s heads.” said Bobby Hull, a veteran and homeowner who won back his home through a nationwide public pressure campaign after US Bank purchased it at the sheriff sale. He is now fighting to help other homeowners get the same deal he did to keep them in their homes.

“Do you know how much US Bank CEO Richard Davis made last year? Over 18 million dollars. And now he wants my house without so much as a good faith negotiation? Well guess what… he can’t have it!” said John Vinje, US Bank customer fighting foreclosure and Vietnam Veteran.
