Senator Kelly Loeffler: Resign for Pandemic Profiteering
Senator Kelly Loeffler: You sold off seven figures’ worth of stock holdings after a private, all-senators meeting on the coronavirus pandemic, which has tanked the stock market and upended the lives of millions across the U.S. Resign immediately.
Why is this important?
Senator Kelly Loeffler dumped millions of dollars of stock in the days and weeks after the Senate Health Committee, which she sits on, hosted a private, all-senators briefing from administration officials about the severity of the coronavirus crisis.
Meanwhile, in public, she was downplaying the threat of the virus, parroting the Trump-GOP line by praising Donald Trump's lackluster efforts to contain the pandemic, and claiming that a "[strong] economy" would keep Americans safe from the coronavirus.
Loeffler used information she was specifically privy to as a member of the Senate to protect her own finances, but did nothing to warn her constituents. She put her constituents—and all of us—at more risk. This is inexcusable and unforgivable. Loeffler must resign immediately.
