Warren is a very unimpressive person.

“Is pressing the financial firms behind the decision to liquidate Toys R Us to contribute to a fund for affected employees. “

Uh, why?

They didnt know they would be able to save the place. They closed, and everyone was let go.

All of these people in this economy should have found work by now.

Put away war-drums, Minnehawhaw.

If the company went bankrupt and out of business, there’s no money to set up such a fund is there?

Assuming everything was done legally regarding the bankruptcy and liquidation process, what exactly is her beef? Employees always lose their jobs when a company goes under.

A defunct chain that for decades ran with employees who wouldn’t give a customer the time of day even if the customer came and stood right there in front of them is typically the sort of cause Psychogewea takes up.

Someone please tell me how Toys R Us former employees have any claim at all to “severance pay”?

The company failed to adjust to changing markets and stuck to their over-priced, poorly run model - finally burring the company in debt and ineptitude. Some of those employees were part of the problem.

Sorry - but I just don’t see a grounds for any claim... Warren is just pandering.

This is was the Dimms have allowed themselves to become? All of those employees found new jobs in the Trump economy. Sorry if this was Obama, they all would still be looking for work a year later. And if there are a few still looking for work, they might be the ones that were part of the problem as to why Toys R Us went belly up in the first place.

Pocahontas needs a real job.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That already exists. It’s called unemployment compensation and was funded by employers like Toys R Us.

Or the Toys R Us employees could do just like ordinary people and get a new job. Why should they expect a handout? Unemployment is at 3.5%. Employers are beginning for warm bodies. Warren is a total unequivocal ass. And the employees are bigger assh*les for encouraging her in her crazy.

Doing the job other Stupid Senators won’t.

Asking a private firm to do more than the law requires...even violating Federal BK law to make employees SENIOR to all other debt holders, above and beyond payroll obligations.

This ask requires a change in Federal Law.

I worked for FIVE retailers who all went bankrupt.
Never got a severance check from any of ‘em.

Suck it up, Buttercup.
