The Occupy movement is apparently broadening its interest in credit unions with a rally planned Saturday  in Irvine, Calif.  amidst talk of founding  a national federation of credit unions under the “People Before Profits” banner.

OccupyFirst, identified as a nonprofit firm “born out of the alternative banking workgroups in the Occupy movement” is sponsoring the rally in the City of Irvine council chambers, according to a city spokesman. Irvine is a Los Angeles suburb.
