Friend,

I hope you’re expecting a nice tax refund this year! But if not, it might
be because of our regressive tax code, which causes regular working
Americans to pick up the tab for billionaires and corporations who pay
next to nothing. If you had to pay, you most likely paid more taxes than
the richest people and corporations in this country. During the pandemic
many Nevadans have struggled to find work and pay for necessities while
the 16 billionaires in our state increased their wealth by $33.6 billion. 

This Tax Day (and week) we held various events to highlight just how hard
it is for regular people to continue to bear the tax burden. 

Check out all of our activities from this week below and TAKE ACTION NOW! 

On Tax Day (4/11) we held a press conference with Congresswoman Dina
Titus, Congressman Steven Horsford, Dawn Etcheverry President elect of
NSEA, and community member Martha Vicente to speak about why it’s time
that the ultra rich in this country finally pay what they owe in taxes.
Both members of Congress discussed President Biden’s plan in the latest
budget to tax wealth like work for the super-rich, so that programs like
education and healthcare can be funded properly. You can watch the press
conference [ [link removed] ]here, and be sure to read [ [link removed] ]our Nevada Billionaires Report
that we released alongside Healthcare for America Now (HCAN) and Americans
for Tax Fairness! 

That’s not all! On Thursday, we were joined by Margarida Jorge from HCAN,
Chris Daly from the Nevada State Education Association, and Ben Challinor
from Faith in Action Nevada to talk about all things taxes on our weekly
Out in Front with Annette. If you missed the episode don’t worry! You can
catch up and watch the whole conversation [ [link removed] ]here.

Help us amplify our Nevada Billionaires Report by sharing your own
[ [link removed] ]tweet to make sure that you voice your support for taxing
billionaires.
