John,
Over the last decade, Wall Street private equity firms have gobbled up huge portions of the U.S. economy, laying off hundreds of thousands of workers and bankrupting businesses. They’re enriching themselves at the expense of working people, families, and communities.
Since 2008, private equity firms have seen the money and wealth they control grow from $1 trillion to an astonishing
$7.4 trillion. They’re playing by a rigged set of rules that allows a handful of people to extract vast wealth at everyone else’s expense.
It’s one reason President Biden wants his Build Back Better package to make sure rich people and corporations who take advantage of our rigged tax system and economy pay their fair share.
Right now, we have an opportunity to change a rigged system and protect the rights, wages and pensions of working people. Add your name to our letter to Congress to end this predatory behavior and protect the rights and wages of working people.
Add your name

For decades, Wall Street private equity firms have enriched themselves by bankrupting companies, laying off workers and devastating entire communities.
We demand Congress act now to end these Wall Street abuses, protect the rights and wages of working people, and make wealthy executives pay for the damage they cause.
