The rich don’t spend the money they have, and the poor don’t have money to spend.

This is a problem when 70% of the economy relies on consumer spending.

Closing our nation's wealth gap isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s essential to save our economy. https://youtu.be/S6dCh48b4oI?feature=shared

When was the last time we wondered about who puts things on shelves?

Today, those invisible ones are seen only to be criminalized for fleeing poverty and oppression.

Pete Buttigieg is correct: Americans bow to no king. On June 14, we’re taking to the streets across the country to reject Trump's authoritarianism and say NO KINGS. Don’t see an event in your area yet? We’ve got everything you need to start one yourself: www.nokings.org/?SQF...
