If Starbucks can afford to give its outgoing CEO Kevin Johnson a $60 million golden parachute on top of his 39% pay raise last year, you know what? It can afford to allow all of its workers to join a union free from fear, intimidation and coercion.

Former Michigan House Speaker and GOP AG candidate violates serious legal ethical boundaries. His law firm represents his opponent and he used insider info to smear opponent. Disqualifying for someone looking to be Attorney General.

Corporations aren’t above our society, they’re a part of our society! They benefit from public services like roads and bridges, and they should help pay for them like the rest of us.

There's no way out of poverty when you're being held in place by greedy corporations. With a union, we fight back together. #UnionsForAll #FightFor15

Big Oil wants you to think Biden is to blame for rising gas prices. But oil execs admit they have more than enough drilling permits. And BP’s CFO even said last year, “We have more cash than we know what to do with.” These corporations are jacking up prices because they can.

.@Sen_JoeManchin torpedoed Sarah Bloom Raskin for the Fed because she warned about the risks of climate change to the economy. His family fortune is largely derived from coal. He's taken more money from fossil-fuel interests than any other senator in the current cycle. #DirtyJoe

Jeff Bezos worth $168 billion will be blasting Kim Kardashian's boyfriend to space. Oil tycoon Charles Koch & his family worth $114 billion is still doing business in Russia. Elon Musk worth $212 billion is mocking supporters of Ukraine. Normalize 2 words: American oligarchs.

Why is the price of oil LOWER today than it was in 2014 while the average price for a gallon of gas nationwide is 80 cents a gallon HIGHER than it was eight years ago? Answer: Corporate greed. Now is no time for profiteering. Now is the time for a windfall profits tax.

The CBO just conducted a report on single-payer health care. Here’s what they found: A government-sponsored health care system would boost the economy, help workers, and increase longevity. These are not progressives. These are the findings of a Republican-led federal agency.

Single payer detractors love to focus on increased taxes, but let's get real. You get to remove insurance company premiums, deductibles, co-pays, and medical bills! Forever! Passing #UniversalHealthcare would be a huge cost relief.

Holy hell. Sen. Toomey quietly slipped in an amendment to BAN postal banking into the Postal Service Reform Act. This includes money orders, which @USPS sells $21 BILLION worth of per year. We can’t let this happen. Call your Senator now!
