Give Yolanda Quesada her job back.

The Issue

58 years old, Yolanda Quesada was recently fired by Wells Fargo after five years as an outstanding, award winning employee. She lost her job after it was discovered that she failed to report a shoplifting offense she committed as a teenager on her job application.

Her misdemeanor took place over 40 years ago in 1972, yet the bank claims they are just following an FDIC ruling. However, the federal law applies to felony convictions, not misdemeanors over 7 years old.

Ms. Quesada is the victim of an unlawful firing by Wells Fargo, a bank, who via their shady lending and mortgage practices, have caused thousands of Americans to lose their homes and financially ruined them and their credit. Now their gross hypocrisy will damage this woman's ability to make a living.
