SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) — Protesters, including some who dressed up like Cupid, congregated at San Francisco’s Twitter headquarters on Wednesday to voice opposition to the tax breaks several tech companies have received.
A crowd of several hundred demonstrators, including members of Service Employees International Union Local 1021, marched down Market Street Wednesday. The Cupids, who wore red tights and white feathered wings, bows and arrows, aimed suction-cup, tipped bows and arrows with tags that read: “Affordable housing or tax breaks for Ron Conway and no sweetheart deals for CEOs,” at Twitter’s front doors.
