(DNAINFO)  January 4, 2015 — Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders will pledge Tuesday that if elected president he would act within his first year to break up banks deemed “too big to fail.”

The promise is included in a speech that the Vermont senator is scheduled to deliver in Manhattan on Wall Street reform, one of the pillars of his upstart campaign for the Democratic nomination against Hillary Clinton.

In the address, Sanders plans to assert that “a handful of huge financial institutions simply have too much economic and political power over this country.”

The Vermont senator plans to detail his proposals for the financial sector on Tuesday.
