In June 2020, 2.7 million people tuned in to our Mass Poor People’s & Low-Wage Workers Assembly. Next year, we will invite all of them to join us on June 18 in person to Washington, DC.
The struggle to just take a step in the right direction with the Build Back Better Plan, & the failure to take a step toward a living wage to lift poor & low-wealth “essential” workers are signs we must mobilize & make them hear us!
Democrats’ & Republicans’ lives depend on it. Communities depend on it. Political games & catering to corporate interests cost the lives of 700 people who die every day from poverty.
And we can’t even pass a partial economic investment plan in the midst of a pandemic? The nation can’t raise the minimum wage to a living wage for millions of low-wage workers, but we can let billionaires make $2 trillion dollars during the pandemic so far?
Something is wrong with the heart and political consciousness of of the nation. WE MUST & WE WILL DO MORE, and we will not be silent any more! America must have a moral revolution now, & it’s time to nonviolently disrupt, protest, shake up, and alter the direction of this nation!
This cannot be a moment of temporary protest. We must shake up the very conscience of the nation now. We must do MORE.
