Albanian prosecutors just froze the bank accounts of the company holding the land for Jared Kushner’s four billion dollar coastal resort project. No transactions can move which means construction financing is dead in the water.

Black text on white page that reads: 

Amazon is worth $2 trillion. But it didn't deign to pay the millions of dollars it racked up in unpaid fines as its’ trucks illegally polluted our air and forced New Yorkers to breathe in their exhaust. 

We collected every dollar they owe the people of this city — and will continue to hold them accountable. In New York, corporations are held to the same standard as everyone else. 

No company — no matter how large or powerful — is above the law.
