Creatively calling out corruption

This week, Congress approved another $40 billion of weapons purchases. That’s twice the amount it would have taken to end homeless across the United States.

Half a million Americans live without housing. Congress made an affirmative choice to abandon their needs, prioritizing the profits of weapons manufacturers first.

Would you rather see our city’s voice in Washington working to establish a right to housing than selling weapons abroad?

The human rights crisis in Ukraine is real. The Pentagon—enabled by Congress—also helped instigate it.

Meanwhile, at least 20 Members of Congress are personally invested in the publicly traded stocks of weapons manufacturers, positioning them to personally profit from their decisions.

This is worse than mere corruption. This is corruption enabling international conflict.

Would you rather see San Francisco’s voice in Washington advocating for a ban on congressional insider trading to stem this corrupting corporate influence on Congress, or instead embodying that corruption?

Since Pelosi is continuing to duck debates—for the 35th year in a row—we’ve been forced to get creative in exposing her record and the alternative that we present.

Our latest volunteer-led project is a video comparing our comments and perspectives on insider trading by Members of Congress.

The video is available on YouTube, as well as Facebook and Twitter, and we encourage you to share it on whichever platforms you use.

Can you consider a campaign contribution today to help us inform more voters about the contrasts between their choices on the ballot? Your support makes a crucial difference as we work around the continuing media whiteout.

Thanks for standing with us and helping defend the future from the failures of the past!

Your voice,
