John,
The priorities of Congressional Republicans are pretty simple: Tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations, paid for through cuts to critical services for working families.
This week, President Biden released his 2025 budget, which flips Republican priorities on their head:
Biden’s plan is exactly what we’re fighting for: taxing the rich and corporations to preserve and expand critical services for working families. We know that when the wealthy and big corporations pay their fair share in taxes, we can lower the costs working families pay for healthcare, childcare, education, and more.
Click here to send a message to your senators and representative urging them to pass Biden’s budget, which is an investment in our country and our future.
At a time when Republicans from Donald Trump to GOP Budget Committee Chair Jodey Arrington are calling for cuts to Social Security, Biden’s budget would expand Social Security and extend the lifespan of the trust fund by making millionaires and billionaires pay into Social Security on a larger share of their income.
All told, President Biden’s budget proposes raising nearly $5.3 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade by making millionaires, billionaires, and large profitable corporations pay their fair share in taxes. He’d use $2.3 trillion to preserve and expand vital public services for working families and use the rest―nearly $3 trillion―to reduce the national debt.
Take action now. Write to your senators and representative and tell them to pass President Biden’s budget to increase taxes on the rich and big corporations, and invest that new revenue in our future.
Together, we’re fighting for an economy and a tax system that put working people first.
Thank you,
