John,

Billionaires are buying our elections―funding right-wing candidates who support their world view of lowering taxes on the rich and corporations, abolishing abortion rights, and privatizing our earned Social Security benefits. We’re fighting back, shining a spotlight on the billionaires who would rather operate in the shadows.

This month, you can hold billionaires accountable without opening your wallet.

Click here to vote for Americans for Tax Fairness in October’s CREDO voting. The more votes we receive the more funding we’ll get to defend our democracy from billionaires buying our elections.

Thank you for all that you do to fight for an economy and a tax system that puts working people first.

John,

Seventy-four percent of voters support a Billionaire Minimum Income Tax.[1] Guess who’s opposed. The billionaires who have gotten away with paying virtually nothing in federal income taxes.

Because most billionaires’ income comes from investments, and they only pay taxes on that income when they sell those investments, billionaires can go years (if not forever) without paying a dime in federal income taxes. The Billionaire Minimum Income Tax would require those worth more than $100 million to pay an annual income tax rate of at least 20%, whether they sell their investments or not.

According to numerous Americans for Tax Fairness reports this year, billionaires are spending big on elections to elect far-right candidates who share their world view. They want to take away our rights―from abolishing abortion rights to privatizing Social Security to massively underfunding public education.

We’re fighting back, demanding members of Congress endorse and run on the Billionaire Minimum Income Tax to hold billionaires accountable for using their obscene wealth to influence our elections and further rig our tax system and economy.

This month, you can hold billionaires accountable without opening your wallet because we’ve been selected by our friends at CREDO to compete for a share of $83,333. The more votes we get, the more funding we’ll receive. But right now, we trail our competition by 9 points!

Thank you for being a critical part of our campaign for change.
