Hi Arnold,

Ever since I asked for hard-hitting captions for our financial reform cartoon, I've been seriously impressed.

Not just because so many of you were up to the task – but also because so many of your clever captions made me laugh out loud!

As the chuckles from my office attested, the competition for our winning caption was fierce. But after a round of voting by our activists, the winner was clear:

"And they complain about the mess we make!" – Edwin P.

Reading through so many witty entries that really get to the root of the financial crisis, it was hard to pick just one. That's why we've compiled some of our favorites for you to read – click here to check them out!

As the Senate continues to debate financial reform, it's more important than ever that we make it clear that Americans are demanding new rules to rein in the reckless behavior of big banks and crack down on abusive and deceptive practices used by credit card and mortgage companies.

Thank you for standing up to Wall Street's excesses and I'll be in touch soon with the latest on financial reform and how you can take action!

Barry Jackson
Senior Manager, Grassroots

Hi Arnold,

Ever since I asked for hard-hitting captions for our financial reform cartoon, I've been seriously impressed.

Not just because so many of you were up to the task – but also because so many of your clever captions made me laugh out loud!

As the chuckles from my office attested, the competition for our winning caption was fierce. But after a round of voting by our activists, the winner was clear:

"And they complain about the mess we make!" – Edwin P.

Reading through so many witty entries that really get to the root of the financial crisis, it was hard to pick just one. That's why we've compiled some of our favorites for you to read – click here to check them out!

As the Senate continues to debate financial reform, it's more important than ever that we make it clear that Americans are demanding new rules to rein in the reckless behavior of big banks and crack down on abusive and deceptive practices used by credit card and mortgage companies.

Thank you for standing up to Wall Street's excesses and I'll be in touch soon with the latest on financial reform and how you can take action!

Barry Jackson
