ACTION NEEDED
Friend,
Tell your Representative: Co-Sponsor and Pass the OLIGARCH Act

Our country is on the brink. American oligarchs have used their wealth
to accumulate an unprecedented level of political power and used that
political power to amass even greater wealth. Without decisive action,
within the next decade, this vicious cycle of concentrated power and
money will destroy democratic capitalism, and with it, our American way
of life.
The level of inequality we're experiencing today hasn't been this
extreme since the Gilded Age. We must act before it's too late.
I am urging you to sign on as a co-sponsor to the OLIGARCH Act,
alongside Representatives Barbara Lee (CA-12), Summer Lee (PA-12) and
others, which will directly tax wealth accumulation of the ultra-rich
and help to dilute their political power and influence.
There comes a point when extreme wealth is, by definition, extreme
power. We have reached that point. Concentrated wealth is suffocating
our democracy, threatening our economic system, and undermining our
social cohesion. A government that works only for billionaires while
ordinary Americans suffer cannot withstand authoritarian forces and
extremists. The OLIGARCH Act is the answer to these challenges, and I
ask that you support it.
