No DHS where we work & shop! bit.ly/4pH13oS Disguised as a bill to combat “organized retail theft,” in reality, CORCA means more facial recognition tech at Amazon & Walmart + more data-sharing of customer & employee info w/ the current regime. Tell the Senate to vote NO
Graphic depicts surveillance camera with "NO" symbol and text reading: "STOP CORCA. Don't expand retail surveillance — Tell Congress to reject legislation that could increase data sharing  with retailers and DHS."
