John, the CEOs of
America’s largest corporations make too much money — don’t you think?
Especially compared to the salaries and wages of workers in this country.
Don’t you think Steven Schwarzman, the CEO of Blackstone and a major Trump
donor in 2020, makes too much money? Blackstone paid him $253,122,146 in
2022, over 1,000 times more than the company’s median worker. That’s a lot
of money for Schwarzman to donate to Republican Super PACs.
Don’t you think Michael Rapino, the CEO of Live Nation — 2022 compensation
at $139,005,565 — is making too much money? When Live Nation, who owns
Ticketmaster, slaps you with outrageous, bogus fees to go see a concert,
comedy show, or sporting event, Rapino is making millions. And he makes
5,414x the average Live Nation worker.
We definitely think these CEOs are making too much money. That’s why we’re
all-in behind the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act, legislation that would either
punish corporations with a higher tax bill for paying CEOs so much or
force them to raise the pay of their workers.

“Corporate greed is a disease,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib said as progressives
introduced this bill a few weeks ago. “It’s disgraceful that corporations
continue to rake in record profits by exploiting the labor of their
workers. Working families deserve to live with human dignity.”
If the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act had been in effect in 2022, corporations
like McDonald’s, Nike, Walmart, JP Morgan Chase, and Google would’ve had
to pay billions more in taxes.
Millionaires and billionaires don’t need higher salaries. Workers need
better pay so they can afford rent, mortgages, daycare, groceries,
medications, and more. That’s why this bill, which targets the massive
income and wealth inequality in America, is so important. It’s time for
the richest people in this country to pay their fair share in taxes.

CEO pay and wealth inequality in America.
When we organize, we win.
