John,
Who’s benefiting from Trump’s $1.9 trillion tax scam for the rich and corporations? It’s not working families….
This week, the New York Times broke the following story:
Not only is FedEx paying $0 in taxes on its $4.6 billion in profits in 2018, they’re owed a refund![1]
Americans for Tax Fairness is leading the charge against corporate tax dodgers like FedEx and demanding a Fair Share Tax System that works for all of us, not just the rich and corporations.
Donate today to demand Congress stand with the American people, not multinational corporations.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your secure donation will go through immediately:
FedEx and other multinational corporations marshaled an army of 7,000 lobbyists to ram the Trump-GOP tax scam through Congress two years ago.[2] They had a huge win: the GOP slashed the corporate tax rate down from 35% to 21%.
Corporations claimed their big tax cuts would create a lot more jobs and much higher wages. It hasn’t happened, of course.
In fact, FedEx and many other big corporate winners of the Trump-GOP tax scam have spent less on investments to benefit their workers and businesses since the tax scam was signed into law. Instead, they’ve used their tax refunds to shower their wealthy shareholders with new-found riches in the form of much higher CEO pay and massive stock buybacks.
The Americans for Tax Fairness coalition is your small band of warriors leading the fight against this corporate onslaught.
Donate to Americans for Tax Fairness today to help us fight corporate greed and tax dodging and demand a Fair Share Tax System that works for all of us, not just the wealthy few.
Together, we’re changing the national conversation away from a tried-and-failed trickled down tax system and toward one that invests in working families.
Thank you,
Frank Clemente
