It’s impossible to earn a billion dollars. Every single billionaire who amasses that much wealth does it through an inheritance or by exploiting their workers, our planet, and our laws. As they buy elections through their billionaire-funded super PACs and rig our laws through high-priced Washington DC lobbyists, they amass even more wealth and power.
That’s why overwhelmingly popular policies like fair taxes, expanding Social Security, and climate action can’t get a vote in Congress. Too many politicians are either bought-and-paid-for by the billionaire interests or they’re afraid of billionaire super PAC campaign spending.
We’re fighting for a Billionaires Income Tax to rein in the wealth and greed of the billionaire class and limit their ability to buy our elections and our democracy.
Chip in today to counter the virtually unlimited resources of billionaires and show that, together, people power can defeat Big Money.

John,
Why did Joe Manchin flip on supporting a tax and investment plan that makes the rich pay their fair share and finally begins to combat the climate crisis? Could it be because he’s in the pocket of billionaires and the fossil fuel industry?
According to a new report by Americans for Tax Fairness, billionaires are spending big to buy politicians this election to do their bidding―from rigging the tax code to threatening our rights to attacking democracy. That’s why we’re fighting for a Billionaires Income Tax so billionaires pay taxes each year, like you and I, and in turn have less money to buy our elections.
Watch our new video on Manchin’s flip-flop then pitch in today to demand Congress pass a Billionaires Income Tax to stop billionaires’ attacks on our democracy.
In Senate races from Arizona to Georgia to Ohio to Wisconsin, billionaires are spending big to elect right-wing candidates who want to destroy our democracy and our planet. They want to continue massive tax handouts to the super-rich while undermining popular programs like Social Security that are critical to the financial and retirement security of millions of Americans.
Chip in today to fight for a Billionaires Income Tax to tax billionaire wealth each year, so they have less money to spend on buying our elections and destroying our democracy.
