NOT LETTING UP. ALEXANDRA OCASIO-CORTEZ.

David, we’re not letting up.
In just a few days since ProPublica released their exposé on Senators Richard Burr and Kelly Loeffler’s alleged insider trading, our movement has gathered nearly 75,000 signatures to demand their resignations.
We’re not going to let them get away with it. That’s why we’re doubling down and pushing for a goal of 100,000 signatures by 11:59 PM TONIGHT.
Imagine this: Richard Burr in a room of wealthy donors, just days after receiving non-public information about COVID-19, warning them about how bad this crisis was going to get.
Just think about what working families could’ve done with that information. Think about how blindsided you were with how quickly our lives changed, and now know that a group of people who paid $10,000 each to attend a lunch got advance notice from a sitting Senator — someone who’s supposed to be a public servant.
Those were their priorities: Selling stock to benefit themselves, and then making sure their wealthy donors got out okay. Not us. Not the people.
It’s time to send a clear message: Just because you’re rich and powerful doesn’t mean you can sell out the working people of this nation and get away with it.
Pa’lante,
Team AOC
