Press Conference: Think Before You Click! Don't Help Amazon Cheat California

Multi-billion dollar corporations like Amazon.com have long taken advantage of tax breaks and loopholes that deprive California of the revenue needed to provide vital public services programs. Amazon.com has made billions by doing business in California. Now they want to overturn legislation passed at a time of unprecedented fiscal crisis, after California cut $14.6 billion from basic public services ranging from schools and parks to health care for children, seniors and people with disabilities. Amazon’s repeal effort threatens to force even deeper cuts to services for seniors and people with disabilities. Please join us on August 31st at 11:45am at Skylight Books to ask Amazon.com to do the right thing!
