John,
Right now, billionaires could get off scot-free from paying any new income taxes in the Build Back Better plan, even while Congress pays for the plan by increasing taxes on the rich and corporations.
How’s this possible? It’s because billionaires largely earn their incomes from investments, not from a traditional paycheck. And the increase in their wealth can go years, decades―even forever!―without incurring any income taxes.
ATF’s Digital Director, Andrea Haverdink, has created this new TikTok video to educate and rally the American people around the Billionaires Income Tax―a new fair-share tax by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden―to raise hundreds of billions of dollars towards President Biden’s Build Back Better plan.
The great news is that support for President Biden’s plan increases by a net 29% in key swing congressional districts when voters learn that it’s paid for by the Billionaires Income Tax.[1]
Click here to check out our latest video, then pitch in to bring it to hundreds of thousands of people this week to build massive support for the Billionaires Income Tax to help pay for President Biden’s Build Back Better plan.
President Biden and Democrats were elected on the promise of unrigging our tax code to make the rich and corporations pay their fair share. Don’t let billionaires off the hook!
Donate today to keep the pressure on Congress and demand billionaires start paying their fair share.
