Is there any company more hated by Rep. Omar and her Squad comrades?
Jeff Bezos makes over $300 million a day while subjecting Amazon workers of color to brutal working conditions and union busting.
This is the face of 21st century greed.
I joined 50 Members of Congress today in calling for it to end. https://t.co/COvhDRVgu6 https://t.co/4S6CIoQ583

And we really do hope Amazon took a tax deduction for this event, too:
Working people paid taxes last year.
Thanks to Trump’s tax scam, Amazon brought in a *$129 million* tax refund.
We need to end the days of greedy corporations reaping the benefits of employees’ hard work.

Maybe it’s not such a greedy corporation after all?
