DNC union launches GoFundMe after staff cut without severance
Quote:A union for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has launched a GoFundMe in order to help out staffers who are out of their jobs since the election loss earlier this month. The DNC announced that there would be layoffs last week.

The GoFundMe, called, "Support the DNC Staff Union Layoff Relief Fund," has raised around $17,000 as of Tuesday morning. The page states, "Last week, 2/3 of DNC staff was laid off with little notice and no severance. We are heartbroken to see our colleagues—who dedicated countless hours to electing Democrats up and down the ballot—depart under these circumstances, and we are furious with DNC leadership for failing to provide severance to those affected."




The GoFundMe adds that it was created in order to "directly aid staff members" who have been "impacted by the recent layoffs." The fund is being "overseen by current and former DNC Staff Union leaders, who pledge to make the administration of this account transparent," according to the page. There have been a total of 136 donations as of Tuesday morning.

The layoffs from the DNC were blasted by the union, which published a public statement, calling the cuts "callous" as well as "short-sighted."



"These cuts go far beyond typical campaign turnover and impact employees who were previously told their positions would be retained after the election. Chair Jaime Harrison and Executive Director Sam Cornale refuse to address their staff face to face and have offered no explanation for how these cuts were decided," the DNC Union added in its statement released on Nov. 18.

The DNC staffers controlling the GoFundMe claimed that all the funds that are donated will be "distributed equally to any laid-off member who opts in to receive funds." This comes as it was learned that some staffers on the Kamala Harris campaign who were also promised to have their positions until the end of the year were cut off amid debts having to be paid off.

Yep, blew through a Billion (with a B) and a half in 3 months paying for dumbschit like Oprah endorsements and whatever else and now finds the DNC 20+ million in debt.

Cases of top shelf Pinot for knee pads don’t come cheap either.

And these people wanted to be in charge.
Boy o boy did we, Ahem, dodge a bullet this time.
What a rudderless disaster of an Admin., who’s in charge right now anyway? “Dr.” Jill?!? Wow
