 Help address the challenges posed by Amazon. Excepting top executives like CEO Andrew Jassy whose compensation in 2021 was over $212 million, Amazon's labor force is facing yet another holiday season of long hours, high pressure, and low wages. In fact, Jassy paid the median employee at Amazon just 0.015% of his extraordinary windfall. That's under $33,000.  So gather to make Amazon pay - pay its employees, pay its taxes, and pay for the damage it is doing to our planet.
