About the Author
Author @BernieOrBust cut his teeth with political activism during the nuclear freeze movement of the 1980s. When the Citizens United v. FEC decision was handed down, he became involved in the movement to get an amendment passed by Congress to make it clear money is not speech and corporations should not have the rights of human beings. He served in 2014 as the statewide coordinator in New York for Move to Amend, and in 2016 he attended the press conference held in Albany to announce that the legislature had made NY the 17th state to call on Congress to pass such an amendment. Building the nationwide Bernie or Bust movement was a labor of love for him

Patrick Walker-a political revolutionary, activist, strategist and writer-is also co-founder of Revolt Against Plutocracy, the co-creator of the Bernie or Bust pledge and, most recently, a founding member of the Progressive or Bust movement. A veteran anti-fracking and Occupy activist, his writings have appeared in CounterPunch, Salon, Truthdig, OpEdNews and Nation of Change.
