This is a dangerous equivocation, as Trump’s White House is actively trying to dismantle nonprofit status for organizations he ideologically opposes, while the Right and Abundance Movement is going toe-to-toe with labor to dismantle working-class power.

We cannot allow ourselves to be bullied by power-hungry wannabe billionaires who want to transform our communities into their vision all while making themselves and their VC/developer friends richer.

If you care about the work that we do, and think shining a light on this Astorturf BS is important, please consider contributing to our grassroots effort by supporting our Spring fundraising campaign. We’re up against big money and it’ll take collective power to push back.

Also, if you want to learn more about Tan and his billionaire buddies trying to buy our politics, our reports and Astroturf Maps are available for free download on our website. Appreciate all those that support us and hoping for a future when we won’t have to deal with this.
