6. Today, @Kroger requires these "heroes" to submit a PCR test to qualify for paid time off due to COVID. Since PCR tests can take days, many workers w/symptoms feel pressure to report to work. https://t.co/dyeKh9T3oo — PolitiTweet.org

5. In March 2020, @Kroger gave it's workers a $2/hour increase, calling it a "hero bonus" "We will continue to support you, and your families, during this difficult time." Kroger rolled back the bonus 2 months later https://t.co/dyeKh9T3oo — PolitiTweet.org

4. Kroger offered its Colorado workforce a starting wage of $16/hour. But that's just 13 CENTS above the minimum wage in Denver, where many of its stores are located. https://t.co/dyeKhaaEfW — PolitiTweet.org

3. The CEO of @Kroger, Rodney McMullin, made $22 million in 2020. That's 909x the salary of the median worker. https://t.co/dyeKh9T3oo — PolitiTweet.org

@kroger 2. Over the last decade @Kroger, profits are up 102% and CEO pay is up 150%. Inflation-adjusted wages for frontline workers, however, are down 3-5%. https://t.co/dyeKh9T3oo https://t.co/TV2ukAjcDy — PolitiTweet.org

1. 8K+ @kroger workers are on strike today in Colorado According to a new study, as Kroger earns billions in profits, 2 out of 3 Kroger workers don't earn enough to pay basic expenses https://t.co/dyeKh9T3oo — PolitiTweet.org

@MrWells2011 I will comment and my comment is what you are saying is completely false. Republicans tried to repeal it via reconciliation, which only requires 50 votes. It failed because McCain decided not to go along. Do your research. — PolitiTweet.org

The status quo, where tax cuts and Supreme Court nominees get a carve-out and everything else is subjected to a filibuster, helps one party a lot more than the other — PolitiTweet.org

5. Signing onto a statement saying your company is ready to fight for voting rights and then staying silent when it actually matters is an extremely cynical strategy based on the idea that people will forget what you've said previously. https://t.co/HxLkL6fIlP — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. Republican Senators (save one) will not allow a debate on protecting voting rights. The only meaningful way to support voting rights is to also support filibuster reform. Absent filibuster reform, support for voting rights is just talk. https://t.co/HxLkL6fIlP — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@patagonia @richer_poorer 3. Why does this matter? Corporations have historically played an important role in overcoming Republican opposition to voting rights. In 2006, @Walmart, @Disney and other companies helped convince President Bush to extend the Voting Rights Act https://t.co/HxLkL6fIlP https://t.co/LE7rd8jcFK — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. Only two companies, @patagonia and @richer_poorer, told us they supported reforming the filibuster to protect voting rights. A few told us they supported voting rights generally. Most have gone completely silent. https://t.co/HxLkL6fIlP — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. Last year, 111 companies declared they opposed state laws restricting voting & were “willing and ready to unite in the fight to protect our democracy” So do they support Biden's push to reform the filibuster and protect voting rights? We asked. https://t.co/HxLkL6fIlP — PolitiTweet.org

5. Also as @realchrisrufo admits, it's a way of rebranding anti-CRT legislation which has been used, for example, to try to prohibit second graders from learning about MLK Jr. So now they are just for "transparency" https://t.co/7j51LDwxmg — PolitiTweet.org
