You want to make millions that’s great! Just pay your fair share in taxes! - President Biden #SOTU2024

Do you think the wealthy and big corporations need another $2 trillion in tax breaks? I sure don’t. I’m going to keep fighting like hell to make it fair. And that means under my plan, no one earning less than $400,000 will pay an additional penny in federal taxes.

TAX THE RICH #StateOfTheUnion

No billionaire should pay a lower tax rate than a teacher, a sanitation worker, or a nurse. #SOTU2024

One thing Pres Biden is spitting facts on is the 2017 Trump Tax Cuts. It keeps tax revenue out of the hands of our government and resources we need by giving it directly to rich folks in the form of a tax break. Shoutout to Center on Budget for the graph

Imagine a future with affordable childcare! Imagine a future with paid leave! Imagine a future with affordable healthcare! Turns out we can have nice things if the wealthy and profitable corporations pay their fair share. #SOTU2024

Even as they’re paying little in taxes, corporations are extracting more from households through greedflation: the elevation of consumer prices after wholesale prices have gone down. Put an end to greedflation AND corporations paying lower tax rates than working families. #SOTU

NEW: A whopping 82% of likely voters favor raising taxes on wealthy corporations. 79% favor raising taxes on the wealthiest individuals. 76% want to use the revenue to invest in child care and paid leave. We should absolutely make this happen. via MomsRising National Women's Law Center

It's time for our leaders to stop giving away Michigan’s resources to wealthy corporations and #FundMIFuture. From Detroit to Kalamazoo to Traverse City, let’s create a beautiful future for every Michigander. #MIleg freep.com/story/news/pol…

This new resource from Michigan League for Public Policy highlights just how important it is that we fund Michigan’s public schools and #FundMIFuture. 1.5 million students and 3400 schools depend on public investments – like our taxes – to provide a good education to MI kids. mlpp.org/michigan-schoo…

The results are in. Billions of dollars in public subsidy to corporations in Detroit has not resulted in the jobs or revenue they promised. Michigan shouldn't make the same mistake. #MILeg bridgedetroit.com/are-tax-breaks…

📊 New poll, same results: Across race & place, Michiganders want wealthy corporations & individuals to pay what they owe in taxes so we can #FundMiFuture. It's time for our leaders to listen to MI voters & ensure all of our communities can thrive. #MILeg motheringjustice.org/pressreleases/…

No more corporate welfare

Emily E Dievendorf and I call for amendments to SOAR, “Make it in Michigan” Package. We are ready to negotiate for the best deal possible for the working class. These amendments would move $1.5 Billion from SOAR to Housing and put working-class guardrails on the housing funding.

Now, a proposal from two progressive legislators to strengthen the package for workers and tenants. The Democrats hold a 1-vote majority in the House and need every vote to pass this deal x.com/DylanWegela/st…
