We’ve been fighting for ten years to build an economy that works for all of us by making the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share in taxes. Follow us on all socials to boost tax fairness ➡️ @4taxfairness
Kristi Noem spent $220 MILLION on a 60-second ad.
Pete Hegseth spent $93 BILLION in one month.
Trump just gave four Big Tech companies a $51 BILLION tax break.
And you’re worried about a single mom getting a few bucks from SNAP to feed her kids?
Wake up, people.
Share of election spending by billionaires before Citizens United: 0.3%
Share of election spending by billionaires in 2024: 19%
It is not a coincidence that we're about to get our first trillionaire while working people struggle to afford rent, groceries, and healthcare.
Never trust anyone who would rather cut Social Security than make millionaires and billionaires pay into the program all year long like the rest of us do.
Protect and expand Social Security. Scrap the cap.
Social Security will start hitting budget shortfalls in 2031.
But we don't need to cut Social Security benefits.
We need to scrap the cap on contributions for millionaires and tax the damn rich.
And we need to do it now.
FYI, budget shortfalls for Social Security begin in 2031. We need Congress to get on this stat.
This is your reminder that after you make $184,500, you stop paying into Social Security.
Millionaires hit that cap today.
We are constantly told there's "not enough" money for Social Security.
But we let America's richest people stop paying into it in March.
Scrap the cap.
NEW: 300 billionaire families spent over $3 BILLION influencing the 2024 elections.
That’s 19% of all political donations that cycle.
Just in case you wondered why it seemed like the media, the economy, the tax code, and the entire system was rigged for the rich.
Millionaires stopped paying into Social Security for the rest of 2026 today.
Billionaires stopped paying in on January 1st.
You're going to pay in for 298 more days.
This makes zero sense. The wealthy should pay in all year like the rest of us.
Scrap the cap.
The same corporations who claim they "can't afford" to pay more than 10% in federal income taxes, lower costs, or give workers raises spent about $8 million apiece on Super Bowl ads last month.
Really makes you think.
The IRS says Meta owes $16 billion in back taxes and penalties.
Meta is suing to keep from paying.
But if the IRS wins, other companies could be on the hook for $700 BILLION.
Now, I've got my money on Trump putting an end to the suit.
But wouldn't it be nice if he didn't?
NPR headline: Trump's tariffs likely cost you hundreds of dollars. Will you get a refund?
TL;DR, no.
Because corporations are getting the refunds, and trickle-down isn't real.
Alright, I've had enough.
We're living paycheck-to-paycheck. Groceries, housing, and healthcare are getting more expensive.
The economy lost 92k jobs last month.
When are we going to wake up and realize that trickle-down economics has ruined everything?
Tax the damn rich.
All those AI and sports gambling ads at the Super Bowl?
You helped pay for them.
Yep. Our tax code lets corporations write the full cost of their ads off on their taxes.
Yet another loophole created to steal from public revenue and benefit billionaires and rich shareholders.
Bet you didn't know you helped pay for those giant corporations to run their Super Bowl ads.
T-Mobile, General Motors, Netflix—they all paid less than 10% in federal income taxes.
A tax loophole let them cut their taxes on their Super Bowl ads by $1.6 MILLION apiece.
Great.
A judge just found that corporations are "entitled" to a refund for the Trump tariffs the Supreme Court overturned.
Really? The companies that passed their tariff costs onto us are "entitled" to compensation?
We are being stolen from.
Tax the rich. Tax corporations.

If you're low-income or middle-income, your wages aren't keeping up with inflation.
If you're high-income, your wages are outpacing inflation.
But I thought trickle-down economics meant when the rich do well, we all do well?
Damn, guess that was a lie.
Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna just proposed a 5% wealth tax on billionaires.
It would raise $4.4 TRILLION for education, healthcare, childcare, and stimulus checks.
And America's billionaires would still be the richest on the planet.
It's time we end trickle-down. Tax the rich.
A data center in Ohio just got a $4.5 MILLION tax break.
10 new full-time jobs will be created.
I have never seen a clearer example of corporate tax breaks playing in our faces.
They're not even hiding the grift anymore.
People with real jobs can't afford groceries, rent, and healthcare right now.
So what is Ted Cruz pushing?
$200 billion in tax cuts for the guys who make money by sitting on their own piles of wealth.
When can we stop pretending trickle-down works and tax the rich instead?
"Did you see Ted Cruz is pushing for $200 billion in tax cuts? That would help our economy so much!"
LOL.
He's asking for tax cuts on capital gains. That means billionaires and giant corporations, not you.
You know what would actually help working people?
Taxing the rich.
Ted Cruz asks Treasury to approve $200 billion tax cut without Congress Cruz and Sen. Tim Scott are pushing for a big change in tax policy ahead of the 2026 midterms.
Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna just introduced a plan to tax billionaires and raise $4.4 TRILLION for the rest of us.
Ted Cruz and Tim Scott want to steal $200 BILLION from us and give it to the richest people in America.
One of these is the right answer, and it's not Ted Cruz's.
Oil giant Halliburton claimed $138 million of income in the Cayman Islands last year.
If you know anything about the Caymans, you know that's virtually impossible.
But the country has a 0% tax rate—so Halliburton dodged $29 MILLION in American taxes.
And our tax code let them.
24% of Americans skipped treatment and medication last year to save money.
34% skipped a meal.
America is on the brink of having its first trillionaire.
If trickle-down tax cuts worked at all, no one would be skipping treatment or meals while billionaires get richer.
