Our government has money for war and genocide, and money for agents to kill, abduct, and detain us—but not money to feed or house us, or to cover our healthcare.
All of this money is taxpayers' money. It belongs to us. But we've been watching a massive transfer of wealth from the people to billionaires and corporations.
This has reached new heights with a corrupt billionaire as president. Trump's net worth has grown by over $4 billion in the past year. He made the largest cuts to Medicaid and food assistance in history, while using the presidency to enrich himself, his billionaire allies, and the corporate donors who spent millions on his campaign.
From the private prison/detention and fossil fuel industry to corporations involved in militarized violence, surveillance, and polluting technology—these donors have seen huge returns on their investments, at our expense.
Many of these industries also donate to members of Congress on both sides of the aisle. That's why people in power keep giving our public taxpayer money to those at the top, rather than our communities' needs.
So I just introduced the Defund the Oligarchs, Fund Our Communities resolution to demand Congress end the system of subsidies, tax breaks, and federal contracts for billionaire and corporate donors. That system enables fascism and oligarchy, not democracy.
My new resolution calls on Congress to tax the ultra-rich and reinvest that money into our communities' needs—such as housing, healthcare, and education.
Please sign on today to support my new resolution and demand our government use our taxpayer money to serve the people, not billionaires. Thank you for taking action and standing with me for justice for all.
In solidarity,
Rashida
