Feel powerless against billionaires buying elections? Here's what you can do.
The Labor Force is splitting donations on this page with Amazon Labor Union.
Late Friday night, we learned that the Washington Post would not endorse any candidate for President for the first time in almost 30 years. We later learned that the Post’s editorial board had already written an endorsement of Kamala Harris, and that billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who owns the Post, personally spiked the piece. Already, thousands of people have canceled their subscriptions to the Washington Post, which has spent a decade selling itself with the slogan “democracy dies in darkness.”
What really keeps Jeff Bezos up at night, though, is the rising union movement at Amazon warehouses. If you want to hit him where it hurts, donate to the Labor Force and Amazon Labor Union today! Together, we can take power back from the billionaire bosses!
Bezos’ intervention is a clear case of the billionaire class meddling with the free press to put their thumbs on the scale for a fellow union-buster. It is a more insidious, but no less ominous, parallel to Elon Musk buying Twitter and turning it into a MAGA megaphone.
It’s easy to feel powerless when billionaires try to buy elections. But unions know how to stand up to billionaires: With solidarity.
That’s how Amazon Labor Union stood together and won a union election in Staten Island, and with our help, that’s how they’re going to win around the country.
The Labor Force is partnering directly with ALU to provide the resources they need to go toe to toe with one of the world’s richest men. Bezos, like Elon Musk, owns a company that has filed lawsuits with the ultimate goal of getting the Supreme Court to declare the National Labor Relations Board unconstitutional. The outcome of this election will go a long way to determining whether or not they’re successful.
This fight is bigger than any political party―working people need a voice that’s as powerful as the billionaire class’s.
The only way to do that is through a resurgent union movement.
Make a donation to the Labor Force today! We’re splitting every donation with our partners at Amazon Labor Union, who know how to get under Bezos’s skin!
