Over the past five months Gloria Takla has been waging a fight to save her home from foreclosure by JPMorgan Chase. Gloria has led a community organizing campaign, with the support of members of the community group ACCE (Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment), Occupy Redwood City, Occupy San Jose and SignOn.org, which has four times turned out over 50 people to demonstrations to support her cause, seen hundreds of people make calls into Chase's executive offices, generated hundreds of petition signatures through SignOn.org and asked elected representatives, Congresswoman Jackie Speier and Sen. Diane Feinstein, to call Chase executives in support of Gloria. Gloria is a leader in the fight to win Principal Reduction Now! She also tells a compelling story of being steered into a predatory loan, putting up $150,000 of her money as a down payment and facing foreclosure as a result of Wall Street's deceptive lending practices.
