Dear John,
We've all experienced the frustration of placing an order for takeout, buying a concert ticket, or booking a flight only for the price to suddenly skyrocket at checkout due to unexplained "fees" tacked on at the last moment.
They're called "junk fees," and they are used by corporations to deceive their customers about costs and pad their bottom lines. Research shows that these fees can add an additional 20% or more on top of the listed price, and without regulations they have been allowed to spread into all corners of our lives—from our food purchases to rent payments, bank fees, cellphone bills, and more.1,2
President Biden has committed to ending these junk fees as part of his larger fight against corporate greed, and MoveOn is building a campaign to support that work by organizing people to put pressure on corporations to stop this greedy, unjust practice.
To kickstart that work, we've just printed a big batch of this "F the Fees" sticker and are asking you to order one for free, place it somewhere visible, and join our fight against corporate greed.
Just click here or on the image below to order yours now.
MoveOn members are committed to this work—more than 140,000 members have signed a petition to break up Ticketmaster, one of the worst offenders when it comes to junk fees.
With the Biden administration now making this a policy priority, we have a real chance to finally take on these corporations and protect everyday people from being scammed by billion-dollar companies making record profits who just want to line the pockets of their executives and shareholders.
Our "F the Fees" sticker is a great way to spark conversation and build momentum for this campaign. Will you help spread the word by ordering your free "F the Fees" sticker today, while supplies last?
Click here to claim your free “F the Fees” sticker, place it somewhere visible, and share this message with your family and friends!
Thanks for all you do.
–MoveOn
