John,
We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to invest in children, youth and families. And we can afford it when the rich and corporations finally begin to pay their fair share.
Did you know that last year 55 corporations paid $0 in federal income taxes on $40 billion in profits?1 And, did you know that 650 billionaires have seen their wealth grow by $1 trillion during the pandemic?2
President Biden’s new tax and investment plan will close loopholes abused by corporate and wealthy tax dodgers and use that new tax revenue to invest in two years of free pre-school and two years of free community college. It’ll create national paid family and medical leave. It’ll invest in affordable childcare and healthcare ― and will lift more than 10 million people out of poverty.3 And so much more.
CHN and our national coalition of allies are fighting for President Biden’s tax and investment plan so we can invest in jobs, children, youth and a future that includes all of us.
Help bring our latest graphic below to millions of people to build national support for President Biden’s tax and investment plan and demand Congress act.
