Call To Stop Identity Theft

Just since February 2005, banks, Choicepoint, Bank of America, DSW Shoe Warehouse, Cardsystems and other companies and agencies have disclosed that they’ve lost the confidential financial information of over 53 million Americans. Leading states like California and New Jersey have passed laws to protect consumers.

Now, the banks and credit card companies are pressuring Congress to pass legislation (H.R. 3997) to override the strongest state consumer protections.

You can reach your representative at 202-224-3121. If you don't know who your representative is, that's OK. Just tell the operator your zip code, and they will connect you.

Here's a message you can leave: “Hello, my name is _________, and I live in _________. I am calling to urge Representative _________ to protect Americans from identity theft and oppose H.R. 3997, which would override important state-level identity theft protections.”

Then, please report your call below so we can keep track of how many calls are made.
