Michael Benthin, homeowner  and his family along with community supporters will demostate at the Bank of America located at 6660 S. Westnedge at 12PM, noon.

The Benthin/Mac family defies Bank of America and vows stay in their home where they have  lived for 3 years. The Benthin/Mac family tried to work with Bank of America for more than 3 years to obtain a loan modification through programs established by the Federal government after the massive taxpayer bailouts of the banks in 2008-2009. Bank of America received a total of $45 billion in bailout funds. In addition, the Federal Reserve agreed to guarantee $118 billion of Bank of America assets, committing taxpayers to take on 90% of Bank of America’s losses if the bank lost more than $10 billion. Yet, Bank of America refuses to work with distressed homeowners such as the Benthin/Macs who were victims of the economic crisis caused by Wall Street and the Big Banks.
