This is outrageous, John.

Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell are trying to ram through an economic
bailout package that includes a $500 billion slush fund for corporations.
That’s right. No conditions. No oversight.

Under the terms of the bill Republicans want to pass, corporations would
be required only to keep workers on the payroll “to the extent possible,”
which means if businesses wanted, they could take billions in bailout
money, then fire their workers anyway.

The Trump Administration would get to choose which corporations get it and
which don't and then keep the identity of the companies receiving
assistance secret for six months.

Why keep it a secret? Well, is there any question in your mind whether or
not Trump will bail out his friends and business he likes, while holding
money from businesses he doesn't like?

Oh and let's be 100% clear, there's no chance that the same administration
that tried last year to give a Trump property the multi-million dollar
federal contract to host the Group of Seven meeting, wouldn't also funnel
tens of millions of dollars to Trump-owned businesses!

Senate Democrats are fighting to make sure the stimulus package puts
people first, not the big corporations and billionaires who have Trump on
speed dial.

saves lives, not Trump's businesses and personal friends.

Democrats are demanding action to address the coronavirus directly by
increasing funding for hospitals, health care providers, state and local
governments, and manufacturing equipment like masks and ventilators that
we need to fight the virus.

Democrats are fighting for serious oversight over the bailout funds to
make sure American families can buy food, pay rent, and get the medical
care they need.

Democrats are fighting to make sure bailout money to corporations is spent
so working people keep their jobs, not so billionaire CEOs can buy another
yacht.

put people before corporations, add your name now to our petition opposing
Trump and McConnell’s corporate bailout plan >>

This virus is impacting everyone across this country, and people need
help. Passing a bailout for corporations that leaves working people behind
is inexcusable.

Democrats in Congress can stop it if they continue to stand strong -- and
we have their backs.

Thank you for raising your voice in this fight. Stay safe.
