Us and them
And after all we’re only ordinary men
Me and you
God only knows it’s not what we would choose to do
“Forward!” he cried
From the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side >>
"...FWD.us is a 501(c)(4) lobbying group based in the United States that advocates for prison reform, amnesty for undocumented immigrants, particularly for DACA recipients, and higher levels of immigration visas, particularly for H-1B visas for foreign workers in STEM fields.[3][4][5]
The initiative is primarily supported and funded by Silicon Valley, and led by principal Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. Its founding president was Joe Green, a close friend and confidant of Zuckerberg. The group aims to build a bipartisan consensus around its proposed policies.[1][6] However, it has garnered criticism for its connections to large technology companies, its support of the Keystone XL pipeline, and what critics have described as its "questionable lobbying practices".[7]
The organization describes itself as "bipartisan"[8] and includes both Republicans and Democrats, however, it has been described as being "backed by liberal-leaning tech CEOs and investors."[9]
