John,
Today, Americans for Tax Fairness unveiled a new website highlighting President-elect Joe Biden’s tax-fairness mandate.

All of us should be really proud of what we accomplished this past year―and this election. The next president of the United States―Joe Biden―ran on the most progressive tax reform agenda of any major-party presidential nominee in modern history. His platform makes a major down payment on the tax fairness agenda that all of us have been fighting for since ATF was created 8 years ago.
Similarly, as a candidate Joe Biden proposed the most sweeping investment agenda of any modern presidential nominee. If enacted, his agenda will bring us much closer to creating an economy that works for all of us―funded by making the rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.
We need to celebrate this big victory and turn it into a governing agenda for the incoming Biden administration. To do that, we first need to make sure everyone else is aware of Joe Biden’s Tax Fairness Mandate. The more we talk about it, promote it and work for it the more likely it will come to be.
So go to our new website, Joe Biden’s Tax Fairness Mandate, which:
-
Explains how central Biden’s tax fairness agenda was to his winning campaign message―from the detailed tax and investment plans he proposed, to the stump speeches he made promoting them, to the hundreds of millions of dollars in ads Donald Trump and his super PACs spent attacking Biden’s tax plan. And Joe Biden stood strong and didn’t back down.
-
Provides video, infographics and other content to educate your friends and family.
-
Provides a 100 Days Agenda that lays out the initial stages of a tax fairness agenda for the new Biden administration.
When implemented, Joe Biden’s tax plan will invest in critical services for working families including healthcare, education, housing, childcare, infrastructure, clean renewable energy and more.
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the great weaknesses in our economy: inequality rising exponentially; billionaire wealth up by one-third, or over $1 trillion, since March; millions of unemployed Americans; more Americans living paycheck to paycheck than during the Great Recession; and state and local public services being slashed due to revenue shortfalls.
Creating a just economy for all of us will require creating a tax system where the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share of taxes and where we put working families first.
Your end-of-year contribution will help lead our critical efforts in 2021 to repeal the Trump-GOP tax cuts for the rich and corporations and ensure the incoming Biden administration follows through on its promise to enact a fair share tax agenda that puts working people first.
