	"description": "There is a point when extreme wealth is, by definition, extreme power. We have reached that point. Concentrated wealth is suffocating our democracy, threatening our economic system, and undermining our social cohesion. A government that works only for billionaires while ordinary Americans suffer cannot withstand authoritarian forces and extremists. To combat this threat, Representatives Barbara Lee (CA-12), Summer Lee (PA-12), and other lawmakers have introduced the Oppose Limitless Inequality Growth and Reverse Community Harms (OLIGARCH) Act. The OLIGARCH Act would establish a wealth tax with four brackets: 2% for all wealth between 1,000 and 10,000 times median household wealth*; 4% for all wealth between 10,000 and 100,000 times median household wealth; 6% for all wealth between 100,000 and 1,000,000 times median household wealth; 8% for all wealth over 1,000,000 times median household wealth. Because the richest households are the largest tax evaders, the bill also includes significant enforcement measures, including a requirement for at least a 30% audit rate on households covered by this tax, and establishes penalties for substantial valuation understatements. For the ultra-wealthy, any tax automatically functions as a constraint on their wealth accumulation. That is why a tax designed solely to reduce wealth inequality is the best approach. Congress must take action now to stop this threat to our democracy before it’s too late. Click “Start Writing” to send a message to your Representative urging them to co-sponsor and pass the OLIGARCH Act now.",
