I met my husband and became a mother in WI.
But I grew up in Jersey and know what to do when interrupted, even by a Senator. #TaxTheRich

Tax policies from Trump’s second term have raised taxes for most Americans while benefiting the wealthy and foreign shareholders.
This includes sweeping tariffs, unequal tax cuts, weakened IRS enforcement, and legally problematic regulations.

This tax season, some Americans seem to think they’re paying less based on their refunds.
But they’re likely paying more in taxes through tariffs and the expiration of health care tax credits.

This is what happens when your tax code gives tax breaks to the same billionaires and corporations keeping wages lower than inflation.
And then you let those same corporations pass tariff costs onto consumers.
What a mess.

The pay of the richest Americans is rising rapidly, while the pay of poorer Americans is nearly flat. Three years ago the opposite was happening, per Bloomberg.

The $117 billion tax break Trump handed to the 1% is more than federal spending of:
-The Department of Agriculture at $89.2 billion
-The Department of Education at $46.9 billion
-The Department of Labor at $22.7 billion
-The Department of Energy at $20 billion
The rich get richer while skimming from federal services meant to help us.

Underfunded public services fuel the demand to tax the rich.
"There are so many needs that American families have, and we so often have to hear, ‘Oh, there’s no money for that.’ Well, there’s lots and lots of money," our Director @amyhanauer explains.

Middle-class Americans can expect to pay $900 more in taxes under Trump’s OBBB, and many red states will see over a $1000 increase.
The top 1% can expect $117 billion in tax cuts this year, one part of their $1 trillion reduction over the 10 years.
While major corporations dodge taxes this season, the bottom 95% is shafted with tax hikes brought on by tariffs.

When billionaires and corporations are let off the hook from paying taxes, the financial burdens and repercussions fall on the rest of us.
We shouldn't have to pay more because billionaires payoff politicians so they can pay less.

Almost a decade ago, Trump slashed the corporate income tax rate by nearly a third. But corporations are paying far below that 21% rate thanks to enormous tax breaks and loopholes. That's how these four big tech companies paid a collective tax rate of just 4.9% last year.

If every one of the 340 million people in America paid a new $35 copay to visit the doctor, that still wouldn’t be enough to cover how much Meta would get from just one tax break in Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill."

The fast-food multinational corporation that owns KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut paid zero federal income tax in 2025.
Yum! Brands avoided $89 million in taxes by moving the intellectual property of Pizza Hut offshore to Malta.

@SenSanders @grok how much total taxes did Tesla, Ticket master and Palantir pay?
English

Last year, Tesla, Ticketmaster and Palantir made billions of dollars in profits, but paid ZERO in federal income taxes.
Do you think Trump will address this outrage at his SOTU address? I doubt it.

Whatever lies Trump tells tonight about taxes in the #SOTU remember who he kissed up to with his tax law

If you paid $300 to Ticketmaster to see a Lady Gaga concert, you paid more to Ticketmaster than it paid in federal income taxes last year after making $145 million in profits.
6 words: Break up Ticketmaster; Tax the rich.
