our goal is to ensure that working people's voices are heard and influence the nation's tax policies.
For decades, far too many of our elected officials have put the wants of special interests, corporations and the very rich over the needs of the rest of us. Now, lawmakers seek to cut taxes for corporations and the rich while claiming such policies will benefit working people. Collectively, we can raise our voices to stop the brazen, upward redistribution of wealth.
Scroll through the timeline from our partner organization the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy for an in-depth look at the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act one year later.

Together, working people can stand up to special interests and demand a fair, sustainable tax system.
This exclusive, highly unequal society based
on extreme wealth for the few may seem
sturdy and inevitable right now,
but eventually it will collapse.
Eventually the pitchforks will come out,
and the ensuing chaos will not benefit anyone —
not wealthy people like me,
and not the poorest people
who have already been left behind.
