Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is poised to release his anti-Amazon legislation this week; unveiling the new policy that would tax large corporations 100% on the amount of government benefits received by their full-time employees.
According to the Washington Examiner, “Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., will introduce an anti-corporate welfare bill Wednesday targeted at corporations such as Amazon, Walmart and American Airlines. The legislation would levy a tax of 100 percent for all federal benefits for low-income workers the corporations’ employees receive.”
Sanders’ legislation comes days after the Democratic Socialist stepped up his all-out war against Amazon and Walmart, blasting the giant corporations for paying “low wages” and claiming many of their employees are on food stamps and other government benefits.
In a rare political statement, Amazon fired-back at Sen. Sanders; accusing the liberal lawmaker of “misleading” the American people over their work conditions and salaries.
