# Fight the billionaire takeover

## They may have the money, but we have the people

**Billionaires and corporations are taking control of our rights and freedoms.**

Using their vast fortunes, **they lobby to weaken regulations meant to protect people and the planet,** fund candidates who serve their interests, and gain control of the media to shape the stories we hear.

And at a time where people’s lives are being lost at war and many of us are drowning in a cost-of-living crisis, their wealth continues skyrocketing—yet another reminder that there is no such thing as an ethical billionaire.

**But what these billionaires underestimate is our power to resist. **

Together we’ve formed unions to challenge factory owners, fought oppressive regimes to win our rights to vote and protected precious ecosystems from multinational corporations. We’ve fought and won before—so we can fight and win again.

It’s time to resist—starting today. They may have the money, but we’ve got the numbers. **Will you join us as one more person in the fight against billionaires, for our future?**

Join the fight against billionaires, for our future.
