"description": "Billionaires have built their extreme wealth on the backs of working people. And because of Donald Trump's Big Ugly Bill, they're getting tax breaks while the rest of us see health care cuts. This is a problem that will ultimately need a nationwide solution. But California has an opportunity right now to lead the nation and show how it can be done. This November, Californians have the chance to pass our country's first billionaire tax, Prop 40. Prop 40 is a one-time, emergency 5% tax on Californians worth more than $1 billion — just about 200 people who, between them, hold a combined $2 trillion. The billionaire tax collected will be used to protect Californians' access to health care. As Senator Bernie Sanders says, "It should be common sense that the billionaires pay just slightly more so that entire communities can preserve access to life-saving medical care. Our country needs access to hospitals and emergency rooms, not more tax breaks for billionaires." Representative Ro Khanna agrees: "It's a matter of values. We believe billionaires can pay a modest wealth tax so working-class Californians have Medicaid." We need to build momentum for a billionaires' wealth tax. First, we'll help to pass it in California. Then, we'll take our fight nationwide! Will you join Sen. Sanders and Rep. Khanna and sign on as a grassroots co-sponsor of Prop 40 — the first billionaire tax? Add your name to our petition today and join the fight!",
