Outrageous

This is outrageous, {NAME}. Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell are trying to ram through an economic bailout package that includes a $500 billion slush fund for corporations. That’s right. No conditions. No oversight. Under the terms of the bill Republicans want to pass, corporations would be required only to keep workers on the payroll “to the extent possible,” which means if businesses wanted, they could take billions in bailout money, then fire their workers anyway. The Trump Administration would get to choose which corporations get it and which don't and then keep the identity of the companies receiving assistance secret for six months. Why keep it a secret? Well, is there any question in your mind whether or not Trump will bail out his friends and business he likes, while holding money from businesses he doesn't like? Oh and let's be 100% clear, there's no chance that the same administration that tried last year to give a Trump property the multi-million dollar federal contract to host the Group of Seven meeting, wouldn't also funnel tens of millions of dollars to Trump-owned businesses! Senate Democrats are fighting to make sure the stimulus package puts people first, not the big corporations and billionaires who have Trump on speed dial. [Demand Democrats stay strong and force a better deal that actually saves lives, not Trump's businesses and personal friends.]( Democrats are demanding action to address the coronavirus directly by increasing funding for hospitals, health care providers, state and local governments, and manufacturing equipment like masks and ventilators that we need to fight the virus. Democrats are fighting for serious oversight over the bailout funds to make sure American families can buy food, pay rent, and get the medical care they need. Democrats are fighting to make sure bailout money to corporations is spent so working people keep their jobs, not so billionaire CEOs can buy another yacht. [Democrats need our support right now. If you agree that Congress has to put people before corporations, add your name now to our petition opposing Trump and McConnell’s corporate bailout plan >>]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( This virus is impacting everyone across this country, and people need help. Passing a bailout for corporations that leaves working people behind is inexcusable. Democrats in Congress can stop it if they continue to stand strong -- and we have their backs. Thank you for raising your voice in this fight.
