I'm a doctor and I need your help

    I'm a doctor treating COVID-19 in New York. I'm also $300,000 in debt. I'm not alone. Medical staff across the country are risking our lives while drowning in debt. Please help me demand that politicians give us more than kind words -- cancel our student loan debt now:  Sig…

    Fake news about coronavirus puts lives at risk, and its blanketing social media. Platforms like Facebook can take urgent action by adding a “report Covid-19 misinformation” button to all coronavirus content. It’s quick and easy and will save lives — let’s show them their users…

Amazon's a super-spreader?

    Amazon workers with suspected coronavirus still need to work to feed their families. Can you chip in to demand Amazon give proper sick pay? Your donation will pay for a mobile billboard to circle the CEO’s mansion to take the workers’ voices directly to his door. Donating…

Re: Horrible news for the bees

    John, I know there’s so much going on right now -- but do you have a minute or two for the bees? Pesticide giant Dow is trying to overturn the French ban on bee-killing pesticides. This is bad news for the bees. French beekeepers have come to us with an urgent cry for help: they lack…

YouTube's Coronavirus problem

Most of us are reeling from Coronavirus -- but some people are profiting from it.     YouTube is profiting off videos pedaling fake remedies to stave off Coronavirus, and those content creators are also taking a cut! But YouTube had originally decided to prohibit all ads on Covid-1…

Re: Corona cure held hostage

Corona cure held hostage

    Pharma giant Gilead may have found the cure for coronavirus. But if we leave it up to Gilead, only the rich will be able to afford the drug. Can you chip in $1 to force Gilead to give up its monopoly and make the coronavirus treatment accessible to all? Donating just tak…
