DESCRIPTION:#PeoplesBailout: May Day Actions and Livestream\n\nLivestream: May 1, 2020 
 @ 11 AM PT (2 PM ET)\n\nWhere: https://thepeoplesbailout.org/\n\nOn May Day 
 - May 1, 2020 - we are coming together to make some noise and tell our 
 stories, in solidarity with one another, and to unite our individual fights 
 into a shared struggle. \n\nMay Day is an international day of action 
 historically led by immigrants and workers to demonstrate strength and 
 solidarity. What binds us together as people is stronger than what 
 separates us and divides us. We must come together to stand in solidarity 
 with those who are hardest hit at this moment. \n\nAcross the United States 
 and around the world, people are asking for support, aid, and protection. 
 They need help to receive medical care, feed their kids, stay safe, and 
 eventually get back to work. \n\nAmazon workers are striking for safer 
 working conditions. Renters and homeowners are calling on landlords and 
 banks to demand rent and mortgage cancellation. Families are demanding 
 utility corporations put an end to water shutoffs. Small business owners 
 are fighting big banks for access to relief funds to pay their employees. 
 Community members are calling for the release of people trapped in unsafe 
 jails and detention centers. Nurses and grocery workers are calling for 
 better safety protections and pay. More than ever, it is clear: Our fights 
 are connected. \n\nWhen we join together on May Day, we’ll be louder and 
 stronger than ever before. We’ll tell those in power - from Congress to 
 the White House, law enforcement, corporations, landlords, and Wall Street 
 - that we need a #PeoplesBailout - relief that is informed by the people 
 and supports the people directly. \n\nWe need a People's Bailout that 
 includes us 
 all!\n________________________________________________________\n\nDEMANDS\n\nAny 
 future relief or stimulus packages must expand health protections for all 
 and get millions of people back to work in good jobs!\n\nA people’s 
 bailout should be rooted in justice. We demand the bailout provide a just 
 recovery by prioritizing and funding those who have been hit first and 
 worst by COVID-19 and the current recession including, but not limited to, 
 Black, Latinx and Indigenous communities. We will not permit Congress to 
 leave anyone behind - not our working families, health workers, caregivers, 
 farmworkers, other essential workers, Black and Latinx communities, 
 undocumented immigrants, Indigenous peoples, or people who are homeless or 
 housing insecure.\n\nWe demand a #PeoplesBailout that upholds these 5 
 Principles for just COVID-19 relief and stimulus:\n\n1. Health is the top 
 priority, for all people, with no exceptions\n\n2. Provide economic relief 
 directly to the people.\n\n3. Support rescue workers and communities, not 
 corporate executives.\n\n4. Make a down payment on a regenerative economy, 
 while preventing future crises.\n\n5. Protect our democratic process while 
 protecting each 
 other.\n\n__________________________________________________________\n\nACTIONS\n\nWrite
