Stop the "Debt Slavery" Bankruptcy Bill in the House

Any day now, your Representative in Congress will vote on a hugely important Bankruptcy Bill (S. 256) that could literally change your life.

The bill was written by the credit card industry, which made $30 billion in profits in 2004 - and  is blinded by its greed.

It will change current law and prevent you from declaring bankruptcy under Chapter 7, which pays off your debts by liquidating your assets. Instead, it would force you into Chapter 13 with a rigid 5-year repayment plan. You would no longer be able to protect your car and home, and you would have to pay greater legal fees.

Simply put, you would become a debt slave to the credit card companies.

When the Senate passed this bill, it rejected a dozen crucial changes to make the bill humane - such as exemptions for serious medical problems, exemptions for those in the military, an interest rate limit of 30%, protecting the homes of the elderly, and comparably strict treatment of those who are rich.
