This is insane. Corporate vultures are buying health care companies and maximizing profits by any means necessary. Residents in nursing homes are 10% more likely to die in facilities owned by predatory takeover firms. Why aren’t more people talking about this?

Outdated trade rules should not take precedence over climate action. State legislators from all 50 states sent a letter urging Biden to protect clean energy jobs from interference by other countries. We deserve a clean energy future.
