Congress is rapidly closing in on a nearly $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill.
It's imperative that there must be binding conditions, long-term reforms, and upfront requirements to protect workers attached to any funds that help corporations.
This can't be corporate welfare, and it can't be no-string-attached corporate bailouts.
Sign the petition to Congress on this page:
1. Any money to corporations must be tied to binding conditions and long-term corporate reforms guaranteeing that corporations will not use bailout money for stock buybacks, executive bonuses, etc. Short-term "oversight" along the way is not good enough. 2. There must be upfront requirements -- not "incentives" -- that corporations that get cash cannot fire workers. In this time of crisis, workers MUST be kept on the payroll..We will update elected officials and the media to keep the pressure on.
