John,
ATF’s new polling is pretty remarkable.
Not only do nearly 7 in 10 voters support raising taxes on the rich and corporations, it’s a top-tier issue that’s just as important as creating jobs!
Last year, 55 Fortune 500 corporations paid no federal income taxes, despite making over $40 billion in profits.[1] And, each year, the richest 1% of Americans evade paying $175 billion in taxes.[2]
By wide margins, the American people understand that it’s time for the rich and corporations to start paying their fair share. And when informing voters that President Biden’s economic and investment plans will be funded by higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations, it makes those plans even more popular!
It’s time for Republicans and corporate Democrats to listen to their constituents, not their rich friends and corporate donors. Help us bring the infographic below to millions of voters and put pressure on Congress to pass President Biden’s jobs and tax plans.
President Biden’s tax plan doesn’t just increase taxes on the rich and corporations. It invests in IRS enforcement to crack down on wealthy and corporate tax cheats.
It closes loopholes to stop incentivizing multinational corporations from outsourcing jobs and shifting profits offshore to tax havens. It ends fossil fuel tax subsidies and more.
Help put pressure on Senate Republicans and corporate Democrats. Tell them to join the American people in demanding the rich and corporations start paying their fair share in taxes. Donate today to bring our latest infographic to millions of voters!
