James,
One year ago today, Trump was inaugurated to his second term.
Even though he vowed to fight for working people, Trump has turned OUR
government into a cash machine for oligarchs – privatizing our government
and plundering taxpayer dollars. While families struggle with rising
costs, Trump is funneling public money, political favors, and government
resources into the pockets of his donors, cronies, and his own family
businesses.
And now we have a plan to stop him.
TODAY, on the anniversary of Trump's return to power, Our Revolution is
working with members of Congress, including US Rep. Rashida Tlaib, to
introduce our groundbreaking resolution to end billionaire power over our
politics. And Our Revolution is launching our "Defund the Oligarchy"
campaign to make it happen – but we need you with us.
Congress must act now to stop billionaires and corporate giants from
buying elections, capturing our government, and rigging the economy in
their favor. Because one thing is certain: we can't solve the climate
crisis, win Medicare for All, or protect our rights as long as oligarchs
control the system.

the Oligarchs and Fund the People.

While families struggle to afford rent, groceries, and healthcare,
America's 900 billionaires now own more wealth than the poorest 67 million
U.S. households *combined*. That's not just inequality – it's oligarchy.
We dug into the numbers. In the last election, Trump's mega-donors from
crypto, oil & gas, and deportation industries funneled $700 million into
his campaign and MAGA causes. Their ROI? Over $172.5 billion in tax breaks
and contracts. For every $1 million they spent, they raked in $18 BILLION.
That isn't democracy; it's daylight robbery.
When Trump promised to "drain the swamp," he actually turned the White
House into a gold mine for the ultra-rich. So we're working with our
allies in Congress to finally:
* End pay-to-play corruption and taxpayer giveaways to billionaire
insiders.
* Get big money out of our elections to stop our voices being drowned
out by billionaire spending.
* Break up corporate monopolies in Big Tech, Big Oil, Wall Street, and
corporate media.
* Tax the ultra-rich and corporate giants so we can finally fund
healthcare, housing, education, and climate action for everyone.
* Build real people power: strengthening unions, expanding worker
ownership, and defending democracy from authoritarian threats.

The resolution is critical, and Our Revolution is demanding every
member of Congress support it so that we can finally Defund the
Oligarchs and Fund the People. But we need EVERYONE with us.

Public anger is growing and Congress is feeling the heat. But this
resolution will only succeed with a massive outpouring from the
grassroots – people like you, demanding a government that works "for
us, not billionaire donors."
We don't have the luxury of waiting – billionaires are cashing in on
our dime right now. So let's come together to defund the oligarchy
NOW!
When we organize, we win,
Our Revolution
