Friends,
Jeff Bezos is on pace to become the first Trillionaire.
Despite a global pandemic, unemployment around 20% and
millions of closed businesses, Jeff Bezos continues to build
his wealth on the backs of working class people. Since the onset
of this devastating crisis, the Amazon founder and CEO has
added a disgusting $24 billion dollars to his net worth. In that
same time, seven Amazon workers have died because of a lack
of workplace protections.
So, while workers are literally fighting for survival,
corporations and their leaders are making billions of
dollars.
Help us end this system of exploitation!
Let’s be honest, no one earns a billion dollars, they steal it!
They steal it from each and everyone of us. They take money
that can provide everyone in this country with health insurance
for free. They take money that could be used to pay for millions
of college tuitions. They steal money that could make our planet
and our energy infrastructure sustainable. Worst of all, they steal
money that should be used to provide living wages, benefits and
sick pay to workers.
All while telling us these things aren’t possible.
This is the broken system we must fix!
This system only continues because our representatives are
beholden to it. They take money from corporations like Amazon
and never challenge them. When in Congress I will fight
companies like Amazon, not work for them.
Every week I serve as the Congressman from NY-5, I will
introduce legislation that puts an end to this corrupt exploitative
system. I will not stop until this country makes working
families a priority.
Here’s what we will introduce/support:
1. Legislation that breaks up monopolies like Amazon and
Facebook.
2. Wealth tax so that we can provide healthcare and
education to every American.
3. Legislation that increases income and capital gains taxes
on people like Jeff Bezos.
4. Legislation that ensures companies like Amazon, who
paid $0 in taxes on $11 billion dollars of profit last year,
pay the American people what we’re owed.
5. Legislation that forces companies like Amazon to provide
living wages, full benefits and comprehensive protections
for workers.
6. Legislation that prevents companies from moving
operations overseas, stripping millions of people from
their jobs and exploiting working class people in other
countries.
Together, we are going to end the age of the billionaire and make
sure that no trillionaire ever exists.
We are not beholden to corporations, because we do not accept
their contributions. We are people powered by folks like you.
Help us rebuild the American economy and put an end to the
exploitation of working class people! Every dollar you donate to
our campaign is a dollar towards ending the reign of
oligarchs like Jeff Bezos. Billionaires should not exist!
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:
We need leaders that will stand up to corporations. That
starts by electing candidates that don’t accept corporate money.
Campaigns that are 100% people powered. If you want to see an
economy that is built by working class people, for working
class people, contribute today and help me end this broken
system.
In Solidarity,
Shaniyat Chowdhury
