061125 Tell Congress: Tax the ultra-rich and fund what people actually need
While working families struggle to pay rent, billionaires are hoarding trillions. They’ve bought yachts, private jets, and elections — while our schools crumble and hospitals close.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Here’s what’s happening:
The top 1% are richer than ever — and they’re paying less in taxes than teachers, nurses, and delivery drivers.
Public goods are underfunded — housing, education, health care, and transit are stretched thin across the country.
We have the tools to fix this — a wealth tax, closing corporate loopholes, and holding the ultra-rich accountable.
Every signature pushes Congress to tax extreme wealth and fund the future we deserve — not just the portfolios of the mega-rich.
In solidarity,
Nash
