Ready to join the fight for tax justice?
Americans are ready for a tax code that rewards work over wealth. Advocates are saying no to regressive state and local tax policies that deprive communities of critical revenue. And the vast majority of Americans continue to dislike the 2017 tax law that largely benefited corporations and the wealthy. Together, we ordinary working people can stand up to special interests and the lawmakers who back them.
