Dear PFAW Member,
We're joining with partners to deliver your petition signatures in just 5
days and we’re desperately trying to get 30,000 petition signatures from
PFAW supporters like you.
Corporations need common-sense guidelines for re-opening the economy and
they need to be held accountable to those guidelines.
Will you add your name now? We're nearly two-thirds of the way there
already!

[ [link removed] ]Stop McConnell’s Dangerous Corporate Immunity Plan
Dear PFAW Member,
Mitch McConnell has drawn his line in the sand. According to him, any
coronavirus relief legislation must include free license for corporations
to endanger workers and consumers in the form of BLANKET IMMUNITY for any
harm done in re-opening their operations.
This is all part of the Republican push to allow companies to get back to
chasing profits without regard for advice from experts or guidelines to
protect their workers.
Never mind that public health experts warn against re-opening many
businesses too early … never mind that the Trump administration is
preventing the CDC from releasing clear guidelines for businesses to
re-open responsibly … McConnell and other Republicans are only interested
in giving yet another blank check to corporations to shield them from all
accountability for the harm they might cause.
It’s an outrage.

corporate immunity plan and demanding that Congress lead by proposing an
evidence-based plan for economic recovery! >>
During a once-in-a-lifetime crisis like this pandemic, it is crucial that
Congress not risk our health and economy for another reckless corporate
giveaway.
Companies need clear guidelines to ensure they are taking the appropriate
steps to protect their workers and the public health at large. And
companies that follow those guidelines deserve some protection. But absent
those guidelines, employers cannot be given a free pass to trample their
workers’ rights and endanger the health of all of us by making decisions
that defy science and risk increasing the overall harm of this crisis.
McConnell’s plan would give free rein to companies that fail to take
reasonable steps to protect workers and the public, giving them no
responsibility even when someone is injured or dies.

to corporations >>
Thank you for your advocacy. Wishing you and your family health and
safety!

Charlie, PFAW
