Fighting Corporate Power
The 2008 economic crash was driven by corporate irresponsibility and Wall Street gambling, yet ordinary Americans paid the price. We say no more! We must end Wall Street looting and invest in companies that are ready to invest in us and our communities. We believe in increasing worker power, reigning in private equity, ensuring their corporations pay their fair share, and keeping corporate money out of our democracy. Private equity has lined the pockets of Wall Street billionaires by bankrupting companies, destroying jobs and cutting corners in safety and environmental protections. Too often, corporations are able to twist our public debate, weaken worker and environmental protections and profit off of our suffering. We need an economy designed for us, not to serve corporations, shareholders and the wealthiest few.
