[ [link removed] ]TELL CONGRESS: No corporate immunity for businesses that fail to
protect employees and consumers! >>

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

PFAW Member,

Since the beginning of the pandemic, COVID-19 has ripped through
meatpacking plants, resulting in thousands of cases as employees were
forced to work shoulder-to-shoulder. It spread between workers and
consumers at grocery stores, health care facilities, and other essential
service operations. And as some states have begun to reopen, the health of
employees and customers throughout the economy has been increasingly
threatened by exposure to COVID-19.

But Mitch McConnell’s priority for the next coronavirus relief package
isn’t saving lives or protecting workers — it’s protecting corporate CEOs
and shareholders from accountability.

Under McConnell’s plan, companies that force sick employees to work, don’t
allow workers to socially distance, or negligently expose workers and
consumers to the virus could be let off the hook, while their employees
and customers pay with their lives.

their carelessness causes COVID-19 outbreaks. REJECT corporate immunity
for COVID-19! >>

As many states ignore public health experts and race toward reopening, big
business is lobbying Congress to demand immunity from lawsuits.

Some employers are not only refusing to provide face masks for their
employees, they’re banning them outright! And employees who get sick risk
taking COVID-19 back to their families at home.

Mitch McConnell insists that NO more COVID-19 relief for the people will
pass unless companies receive immunity first.

And with the Senate poised to move on the next coronavirus relief package
as early as next week, Congress must hear from us now!

[ [link removed] ]Demand that Congress REJECTS Mitch McConnell’s reckless plans to
jeopardize the health and safety of employees during this crisis! >>

We cannot let McConnell and Senate Republicans hold our health and safety
hostage so corporations can be shielded from their own negligence.

Thanks for all you do,

- Zach, PFAW
