THE LIVESTREAM:


A conversation about the threat we face and practical steps to reclaim our democracy and our economy before it’s too late.


WHEN:
Monday, April 4th, 2021 // 2:30 – 5:00PM ET
WHERE: Tune into the livestream @ fb.com/PatrioticMillionaires

Democracy isn’t just under attack from Russian oligarchs. The US has oligarchs of its own, and they are no less dangerous. They have used their wealth to accumulate vast amounts of political power, and with that power, they rigged our economy and brought our democracy to its knees. This conference will explore the contours of the threats we face and the practical steps to reclaim our country for everyday people before it’s too late.
