Every once in a while, it’s good to remind ourselves and our friends of how much political malpractice goes unnoticed and unpunished. It’s not always as obvious as my opponent opposing the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, or a Universal Basic Income during the COVID-19 crisis. Let’s just take one example:

On May 8, 2020, my opponent, Frank Pallone, issued a statement touting his work to secure billions of dollars for hospitals in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

On May 25, the New York Times reported that much of the money Pallone fought for went to the nation’s wealthiest hospitals, rather than ones struggling financially.

Then, on June 8, the New York Times reported that many of the recipient hospitals had furloughed workers while continuing to pay their CEOs millions of dollars.

There are two possible explanations for this disgraceful piece of legislation: either 1) Pallone knowingly transferred huge sums of taxpayer money to his campaign donors, or 2) Pallone wrote terribly ineffective legislation that let the Trump administration and corporations abuse funds meant for COVID-19 relief.

Neither explanation makes Pallone look good. In fact, I’d argue that either one is reason enough to vote him out. He’s either corrupt or he’s still bad at his job after 32 years.

With your help, we’re going to win this election and replace a corrupt, ineffective career politician with someone who will truly fight for the people. Will you join me in demanding change—no, in making change?

Volunteer in the final six days of this campaign to help send me to Washington. One hour, two hours, ten hours—every bit makes a difference.
