Every day, #Vermonters send >$1M to Amazon—money that doesn't support local jobs or charity. The convenience isn't worth the cost. ⬆️ Amazon shopping = ⬇️⬇️ local businesses. Amazon wants your $$$. It doesn't care about you, your family or your community. #shoplocal #NoAmazon

Don't buy that last-minute Halloween costume on #Amazon. It isn't worth it. There are many creative solutions in your closet. Ask a friend.

#shoplocal. Local shops keep your $$$ in community, fund local jobs, contribute to state income tax revenue, & help local charities.

Please, stop spending money with Amazon. It takes a little more effert these days to find things (in Vermont) but we need to keep our jobs local. Amazon is killing community. And they do not offer good jobs.

This hot mic Zuckerberg moment show their numbers are all lies, undercutting Trump’s entire economic agenda.

In a rational world every media outlet would be leading with it.

The proposed #Amazon last-mile facility is in the RPD-I in Essex #VT. What is RPD-I?? Resource Preservation District, with Industrial uses in harmony with natural environment.

There is NOTHING about an Amazon facility in harmony with nature. Here's what the Beloit WI facility looks like...

The #Essex VT DRB did the right thing in July to deny #Amazon's application for a last-mile facility in Essex.

But Amazon wants its way and has exercised its right to Appeal.

Please tell your friends and neighbors about ACRES' work to keep megacorporations out of Vermont.

If you live in #Williston #VT please call your Selectboard.and Ask them to attend Essex DRB meeting on July 17th.

Williston will get a LOT of #Amazon warehouse traffic on No Williston Rd.
