The wealthiest people in our country keep getting richer while working families struggle to make ends meet and the gap between the ultra-rich and the rest of us grows.  The nation’s 740 billionaires now control more wealth than the 65 million households that make up the bottom half of our economy. They use that wealth to buy off politicians and keep the system rigged in their favor while paying lower tax rates than firefighters, teachers, or nurses.

Congress must fix this unfair tax system by:

• Raising taxes on the ultra-rich millionaires and billionaires to make them pay what they owe.
• Ending tax loopholes that allow the ultra-wealthy to avoid taxes and hoard their wealth for generations.

Congress must act!  We need a more just tax system to build an economy that works for all of us.
