James,
Our action last week protesting Trump’s dinner for top investors in his
crypto memecoin was a huge success!
Our Revolution teamed up with Public Citizen and Indivisible to mobilize
over 100 people to the gates of the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling,
VA. We confronted the mostly foreign attendees – who collectively paid
Trump over $200 million to attend – with signs and chants calling out this
obvious presidential grift of selling access to the rich that undermines
our democracy. The action drew international press coverage in the [ [link removed] ]New
York Times, the [ [link removed] ]BBC, the [ [link removed] ]Independent, [ [link removed] ]CNN and even [ [link removed] ]Crypto
News. Thanks to all who were able to attend and otherwise support this
action!
NEXT WEEK, on Thursday June 5, we are going to Capitol Hill to continue
the fight against crypto corruption! The GENIUS Act now before Congress is
a gift to the very folks who dined with Trump last week. The bill fails to
adequately protect consumers, police illicit trading of stablecoins, or to
address the clear conflict of interest of the Trump family using his
presidency to line their own pockets via memecoins. It puts our financial
systems at risk by removing walls between banking and crypto assets. Last
week it advanced in the Senate via a 69-31 procedural vote which
outrageously included a yes vote from our local Senators Angela Alsobrooks
& Mark Warner! I will send more details later this week about about our
June 5 Lobby Day.
This week, we are getting ready to take our message to Alsobrooks, Warner
and others in Congress. [ [link removed] ]Join us THIS Thursday, May 29, for a virtual
Capitol Hill Action training at 7pm at. Join via Zoom here. Learn more
about the GENIUS Act and how we can make our voices heard.
Together, we are exposing and opposing the oligarchs who are trying to
take over our country! Thank you for becoming part of this local community
of creative action to take them on! Stay tuned for future action
opportunities to defend our democracy and build people power.
With appreciation,
Jane Henderson
