	"description": "Join members of For Our Futures, a student-led organization from the University of Chicago to demand the repeal of the Onion Futures Act of 1958, a nearly 70-year-old federal law prohibiting futures trading in onions. We&#x27;ll gather outside the CME on during the Monday morning, when traders are arriving to work. The Onion Futures Act, enacted following allegations of market manipulation in the 1950s, singled out onions for a prohibition on futures contracts that remains in effect today. For Our Futures is calling on Congress to repeal the ban and restore the ability of onion growers, buyers, and traders to participate in a regulated futures market. Onions remain the only commodity banned from futures trading in the United States. Our protest will feature a giant inflatable onion costume, protest signs, and dozens of students, and will take place outside the headquarters of CME Group, one of the world&#x27;s largest derivatives marketplaces and the historic center of American onion futures trading. Concerned citizens of all stripes — student or not — are encouraged to join.",
