Demand N​.​C. Senator Richard Burr to resign

The Issue

Senator Richard Burr enriched himself and his donors with inside information about the coronavirus while keeping his constituents in the dark. 

According to reports in The Washington Post, NPR, and other major news outlets, Senator Burr used the information in his daily intelligence briefings to warn his donors and sell nearly $1.6 million dollars in stocks before the market sell off occurred once the public learned of coronavirus cases in the USA. 

By putting his own interests above the public welfare of the citizens he represents, we demand Richard Burr resign from the US Senate immediately.
