Here, let me use language you understand: A labor union tries to unionize one of your factories, so why not just let them vote?

Megabanks @jpmorgan and @GoldmanSachs are exploiting a loophole to evade our sanctions and profit off the war in Ukraine—in turn helping Russia fund its human rights abuses.
