Despite the mounting cries for transparency in the last 3 years regarding the MMTLP financial scandal, Chairwoman Ann Wagner (@RepAnnWagner) failed to mention the #MMTLP scandal during today’s House Financial Services (@FinancialCmte) proceedings. As the Chair of the Subcommittee on Capital Markets, her silence at the very moment in regards of MMTLP is inexcusable. Today should be a stark reminder of why the weaponization of regulatory bodies has reached a breaking point and we need more champions in congress such as @RepTimBurchett and @realannapaulina to spearhead committees like these. The #MMTLP scandal is not just a trading anomaly; it is a systemic failure. The @SECGov and @FINRA froze assets to protect institutional interests, effectively sacrificing the backbone of our country to shield the elites. We need investigative journalists like @LaraLogan to look into this financial scandal and expose why Congress continues to turn a blind eye to this unprecedented assault on retail investors. Who is Being Stripped of Their Future? America people who trusted the system with their life savings: • Veterans and First Responders: Those who risked everything for our safety. • Teachers and Nurses: The pillars of our local communities. • Hardworking Families: Citizens who relied on their 401(k)s and pensions for a dignified retirement. While families watch their retirement security vanish, regulators are retreating behind a wall of silence, offering either heavily redacted FOIA responses or denying requests entirely. It is time to uncover the weaponized bureaucracy that is stripping our public servants of their hard-earned futures. @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @POTUS @GenFlynn @DOGE @TuckerCarlson @ShawnRyan762 @annvandersteel @LizCrokin @Beardvet @TheRobbCarter @cvpayne @RepEliCrane @elonmusk @SecVetAffairs @SecKennedy @SecScottBessent @SECPaulSAtkins

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ***MMTLP Investors to Hold Press Conference at SEC Demanding Accountability for Historic Market Failure** Washington, DC January 6, 2026 Retail investors impacted by FINRA’s unprecedented U3 halt of MMTLP will hold a press conference on January 12, 2026, at 10:00 AM outside the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to demand transparency, accountability, and enforcement action following what they describe as a regulator driven market failure. The press conference is being organized by American Made Action, and will be led by Ann Vandersteel, Co-Founder of American Made Action and Host of Steel News. The event will feature affected investors, and market transparency advocates calling attention to the actions of regulators and Wall Street firms that resulted in retail investors being stripped of the ability to trade lawfully held securities. On December 9, 2022, trading in MMTLP was halted with no prior notice and no lawful resolution mechanism. Retail investors were denied the ability to close positions, while market makers and financial institutions were shielded from exposure. To date, no public explanation has reconciled how the halt complied with federal securities law or how investor protections were upheld. There has been no audited accounting of shares or enforcement of trade settlement. “This was not a market driven outcome,” said Ann Vandersteel. “It was regulator driven. Wall Street firms were protected. Retail investors were not. That is not a free market. That is government intervention on behalf of financial institutions.” Despite repeated inquiries, FOIA requests, and congressional correspondence, investors claim the SEC and FINRA have failed to provide meaningful answers. The press conference will formally call for: • Immediate public disclosure of communications between the SEC, FINRA, market makers, and broker dealers related to MMTLP • Congressional hearings into regulatory capture and enforcement failures • Accountability for decisions that violated investor protection mandates • Restoration of lawful market remedies for affected shareholders The MMTLP case has become a flashpoint for broader concerns about regulatory capture, weaponization of government agencies, selective enforcement, and the erosion of trust in U.S. capital markets. Organizers say the issue extends beyond one ticker symbol and strikes at the core of whether retail investors are afforded equal protection under the law. Media are encouraged to attend. Press Conference Details Date: January 12, 2026 Time: 10:00 AM Eastern Location: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street NE Washington, DC For updates and supporting documentation, visit AmericanMadeAction.org Contact: American Made Action Media Inquiries: Press Desk Email: ann@annvandersteel.com ###
