[William LeGate] and I are going
to prove that progressives can
make a better pillow, run a better
business and help make the world
a better place while doing it, David Hogg, via Twitter.

still going through the “legal process of trademarking,”

Their company will provide “good jobs that
support American families,” support “progressive
causes” and create a “better product” than MyPillow. .

begin in six months, as they have “strict guidelines”
regarding sustainability and U.S.-based producers. .

[We] can and will run a better business and
make a better product all with more happy
staff than Mike the pillow guy while creating
US based Union jobs and helping people …
This pillow fight is just getting started.
Mike isn't going to know what hit him …, David Hogg, via Twitter
