At a time of near-record inequalities of income and wealth, Senate Republicans have passed the largest redistribution of income upward in the history of this nation.
It will now be voted on in the House.

Last year, Nike made $23 billion. Its founder is worth $35 billion. But Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products.
Today I met Dinar, who sews 222 labels an hour onto Nike products. She is paid $202 a month.
This is corporate greed at its worst.
