Detroiters For Tax Justice
Detroiters For Tax Justice is a grassroots citizen organization who research where our money goes. We go to public meetings, use the Freedom of Information Act, and share the information we learn with the people. We have caused a great deal of concern among the local billionaires.
We were founded in April 2023 after the City Council's approval of massive corporate tax subsidies to the "District Detroit" project. We are a diverse, and independent volunteer coalition of working class Detroiters uniting under a common banner, including block club and neighborhood association leaders, scholars, small businesses, elected officeholders, teachers, legal professionals, and regular concerned citizens. We stand together to protect our city's future and are currently seeking like-minded organizations and individuals to grow our coalition. We are self-funded, and NOT a 501(c).
