US prison deaths soared by 77% during height of Covid-19 crisis
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse and Reps. Barbara Lee and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have introduced the Curtailing Executive Overcompensation Act. It’s designed to address the problem of out-of-control CEO pay by levying an excise tax on corporations whose CEO-to-median-worker pay disparities are 50 to 1 or greater. The corporate tax rate would be a sliding scale — pegged to the degree to which the ratio of CEO pay (including salary, bonuses, and stock options) to worker pay is greater than 50 to 1. The tax would apply to big companies with gross income of $100 million per year or more and payrolls totaling $10 million or more.

The article on science leaves out the biggest boogie man, climate change and that may be more important int he anti science orientation of the republicans.
Glad to see Sheldon Whitehouse working with Barbara Lee and AOC
Peter Hotez has been one of the worst and most dishonest actors in this pandemic. No one should listen to a word he says, it's all propaganda.
If these vaccines are "safe and effective" why are there 1.66 million VAERS reports of adverse events, that sounds like a giant safety signal is being ignored and suppressed.
1.66 million out of several billion is a very small percentage, no vaccine has no side effects
