We could for instance, march in support of Senator Durban’s bill (twice purposed and rejected) that would allow bankrputcy judges to write down the principal owed on the home while also working out a solution to credit card debt.
This bill would do more to save homes and stimulate the economy than anything else proposed. If we could arrange a march in DC, then perhaps the bill would be prosposed again and get enough votes. Many politicians are running in November, this might be a good time to take action.
