From the AFL-CIO: Time for millionaires to pay their fair share
EDITOR'S NOTE: Thanks to Jeff Wiggins for sending us this.
It’s no secret we have an economy that doesn’t work for everyone. Without a fair tax system, working people will be left behind—it’s time that millionaires pay their fair share. That’s why we need the “Millionaires Surtax.”
Will you sign the petition right now in support of the Millionaires Surtax?
The Millionaires Surtax would raise taxes on households making $2 million or more each year and individuals making $1 million or more. It would only apply to income earned by the top 0.2% of people—the other 99.8% of us wouldn’t pay an extra dime.
It would go a long way in leveling the playing field and making sure the system works for all of us. Sign the petition in support of the Millionaires Surtax here.
In Solidarity,
Team AFL-CIO
