Billionaires need to pay their fair share. Period.
In an age of extreme wealth inequality, it is fundamentally unjust for one person to horde billions of dollars while working-families are forced to make do with less and less.
Shockingly, those same billionaires aren’t too happy to hear us say that. In the past few weeks, a variety of ultra-wealthy figures have made public statements about how people like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are “vilifying” them.
Let’s get one thing straight: pointing out that no person needs $100,000,000,000 as our neighbors struggle to put food on the table isn’t vilifying. It’s just a fact.
It’s time for the wealthy to pair their fair share. Help us build a powerful, progressive movement to fight for economic justice by donating $3 today:

Forgive us if we don’t feel bad about advocating for working-families, even if that makes the super rich uncomfortable.
They already have the entire political lobbying industry and more than enough Congresspeople and Senators at their behest.
In fact, the only reason we’re even talking about this is because of their disproportionate political power. If you or I had an issue with a wealth tax proposal, we’re just a poll number at best. But if JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon does, that’s a whole news cycle.
It’s time to fix our political system and build an economy that works for everyone. Chip in $3 today to help us build a powerful grassroots movement that’s beholden to the people, not the billionaires.
In solidarity,
