Senator Burr Must Resign for Pandemic Profiteering
Protecting your own personal wealth over the public welfare is immoral and outrageous. You must resign immediately.
Why is this important?
Senator Richard Burr (R NC) and his wife sold up to $1.7 million dollars worth of stocks just before the stock market crashed during the Coronavirus epidemic. Burr is the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee and was getting daily briefings about the developing crisis and its seriousness long before most working families knew how deep this crisis would be.
Senator Burr told his constituents that the Coronavirus was under control, but six days later he sold off up to $1.7 million worth of stocks.
In the midst of a global health crisis and impending recession that could be more catastrophic than most of us have ever experienced, Senator Burr lied to American voters about the depth of the crisis they were about to face, putting all of us at risk, and protected his own bank account instead.
Senator Burr must resign. Immediately.
