STOP SECRET CORPORATE GIVEAWAYS

Our local City and County elected leaders

Pittsburgh and Allegheny County’s elected leaders have put our public resources up for auction to Amazon for their second headquarters without our knowledge or consent. The State Office of Public Records ruled that the City and County must make their bid public, but Mayor Bill Peduto and County Executive Rich Fitzgerald refuse to do so. These elected officials have stated publicly that they believe in open government, but their actions say otherwise.

We, the residents of Pittsburgh and Southwest Pennsylvania demand:
  1. The entire package offered to Amazon be made public now for full community discussion.
  2. All public subsidies be subject to open public process and community benefit for all residents, with agreements to improve racial, gender, and class equity.
