Chase used to do mortgages for Union members and gave them back $ 499 in closing costs, of course this was probably factored into their rate..... now AFL-CIO is going to go with Wells Fargo instead and WF will give the union member a $500.00 gift card for doing their mortgage.

So after the big campaigns of move your money out of big banks, the AFL-CIO sells their Union members to Wells Fargo. crazy!
