Move to curb corporate greed.

To: Sen. Durbin, Rep. LaHood, Sen. Duckworth

From: A verified voter in Princeton, IL

November 22

If the message of the election results is “it’s the economy, stupid,” then I urge you to take meaningful steps to help working Americans by addressing the glaring problem of corporate greed. • Push to outlaw stock buybacks • Demand a significant increase in the capital gains tax • Support legislation to boost the corporate tax rate on companies where the ratio of CEO-to-worker pay exceeds 50-1 and even higher where the ratio is greater than 100-1 The American worker is understandably tired of getting the short end of the stick while the Elon Musk’s of the world corner more of the riches. Let’s put a stop to it now. Thank you.
