Some 75 housing rights activists from Chicago, Detroit and Minneapolis demonstrated in front of the Chicago regional office of Fannie Mae on Sept. 10, demanding an end to foreclosures, a reduction of mortgages to current market values, and the return of foreclosed properties to families who were evicted. Demonstrators then marched to Freddie Mac’s office, repeating the same demands. They then joined striking Chicago teachers at a massive march through downtown Chicago. Similar demonstrations took place at the offices of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in Atlanta on Sept. 10 and in Los Angeles and New York on Sept. 12. For a more detailed report, visit moratorium-mi.org.
