DC Should Raise Taxes on Incomes over $1 Million
DC Lawmakers
The tax system advantages the wealthy and well-connected, concentrating their wealth and power. As a result, roughly 1,500 households hold nearly half the wealth in DC. And right now, Congress is gutting essential programs, taking food off people’s tables to pay for federal tax cuts for the wealthy.
When we ask too little of the rich, we shortchange schools, public transportation, and other public services that support a thriving economy for all. Millionaires can afford to pay more in taxes so everyone can have their basic needs met.
