Now that Donald Trump has created his very own felon-to-felon slush fund with $1.8 billion in taxpayer money to hand out to his criminal allies, we need to force Republicans to vote on it -- over and over again. Tell Congress to block Trump's theft of taxpayer money here: bit.ly/3PTbIiX

Costs are up. Wages aren’t keeping up with inflation. And Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress just keep making it worse. It’s not an accident, it’s a choice.

When we ask those with the most to pay their fair share, we can fully fund our schools, take care of our families, and build a future where everyone has a chance. #FundOurFuture #PeopleFirst #WealthTax #TaxTheRich #TaxFairness #EconomicJustice #Hawaii #Policy hiappleseed.org/blog/million...

A lifelong Republican and three-time Trump voter in PA says she’s done: “They’re screwing themselves because nobody is going to vote. People like me, normal people, dealing with the cost of living, we’re not voting.”

Another billionaire, another case of fraud getting quietly dropped by the Trump administration - this time in exchange for the promise of a $10 billion investment.

Reminiscent of the Gingrich Revolution, a multi-bill package would attack higher costs, raise wages, and get big money out of politics. Its architect sees it as a battle plan for the midterms:

More and more you are hearing from Trump voters struggling financially who say he has left them behind - that sentiment is echoed here:

Another good article here highlighting some of those who regret their vote for Trump 👇 'He promised a lot of things,' Ms. Rangel said. The president’s message of economic opportunity won over her and her husband, who both stayed up late to cheer his victory on election night. 'We made a mistake.'

No lies detected from AOC! #ProtectTheVote

“#VotingRights are workers’ rights.” @aflcio.org Secretary-Treasurer Fred Redmond joins me to discuss the #SupremeCourt ruling that threatens #democracy, worker power, and #CivilRights. Watch the full interview 👇 youtu.be/YQIkRFSHBQU

Our new polling shows that more than 90% of workers favor protections from AI for their jobs and privacy and trust unions to deliver over either political party. Workers are united and ready to fight for an AI future that works for them, not just big tech. https://bit.ly/4dkXvTA

Another day, another example of Amazon failing to create the jobs and prosperity it promised in exchange for eye-watering amounts of taxpayer money.... 👀

Many of us know that billionaires don’t pay their “fair share” in taxes. But what if it’s even worse than we thought? At a time of rising prices and deepening economic inequality, the ultra-rich are getting an unearned break—while regular people are left to carry the burden. #TaxJustice

Americans can’t afford the higher health insurance premiums that resulted from Congress’s refusal to extend federal tax credits - and Trump and the GOP are to blame.

“This reconciliation package is a staggering escalation of an agenda that has already unleashed massive harm on the American public and proven to be politically toxic." - Kristen Crowell Read more here: bit.ly/42PgLnm #TaxJustice

"With its decision this week in Louisiana v. Callais, the court has, not for the first time, claimed an authority to reject laws passed by Congress in service of equal justice and a free society. Read more here: https://nyti.ms/4tQJIeu #ProtectTheVote

"At a time when Americans are demanding fairness from their institutions, one uncomfortable truth stands out: The U.S. tax system is not nearly as fair as it should be. And the reason is not high tax rates - it is weak enforcement." #TaxJustice

In 2025, SEIU leader David Huerta was slammed to the ground and thrown in jail by one of Trump's masked Gestapo goon squads simply for protesting the regime's early terror campaigns against working people in LA. Today is #MayDay and David's megaphone is bigger than ever - and he's fighting back 👇

Happy International Workers' Day, and solidarity with every worker fighting today for a better tomorrow. It’s up to each of us to continue building the labor movement started by generations before us to fight for the future we deserve!

A reminder from Elizabeth Warren of how great we could be with different priorities in Congress and the White House. #TaxJustice

REMINDER: It would only cost $45 billion to end homelessness and hunger in America.

The cruelty is the point 👇 "A White House spending plan strips nearly $1.6 billion from programs serving migrant children and refugees — and that's just where the damage starts."

Vote by mail obviously depends on the USPS running effectively. Republicans want to suppress votes, so dismantling our mail service to interfere with elections is pretty dastardly -- yet the media treats the sabotage like it has no connection with overt GOP fascism. Please connect the dots.

"On top of cuts to funding, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act will add more frequent eligibility checks and work requirements to access Medicaid. Those changes, when they take effect later this year and next, will lead an estimated 5.3 million people to lose their coverage by 2034."

This is a consistent finding year after year - the biggest frustration people have with the federal tax code is that the wealthy and corporations don't pay enough. It's a bigger frustration than their own taxes being too high. #TaxJustice

"We can no longer tolerate a rigged tax code that enables billionaires to pay a lower effective tax rate than the average worker and corporations like Tesla & Palantir to pay ZERO in federal income taxes while making billions in profits." - Bernie Sanders Read more here: bit.ly/4mRmL8z #TaxTheRich

"This latest attack on SNAP – another move by the Congressional GOP that jeopardizes children’s ability to eat – is estimated by the CBO to save just $80 million over 10 years. While that certainly is a large dollar amount, it will pay for just one hour of the war in Iran." - @chadderr.bsky.social

Tax Day may have passed, but Americans aren’t done speaking out on taxes, fairness, and how their hard-earned money is being mis-spent by Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress. Take a look at what the people are saying on the misplaced priorities to date – in their own words:

"Middle-class households don’t need tax cuts. They need a government that makes paying taxes worthwhile." #TaxTheRich

Americans across the country took to the streets this Tax Week, demanding their hard-earned dollars go to health care, food assistance, and lowering costs — not billionaire handouts or foreign wars. Here’s what it looked like:

That's absurd. #TaxCorporations

"Like birds of a feather, criminals with similar convictions flock together. Dozens of people convicted of defrauding the government and private investors have been pardoned by Trump, many after donating to his campaign or providing support to his family businesses." More: https://bit.ly/4myMcvr

"Trump’s priority elections bill has languished in the Senate for the past several weeks, but that hasn’t stopped lawmakers in several red states from introducing similar changes for their elections." Read more here: https://bit.ly/4cEvPsK #ProtectTheVote

This #TaxDay, we were joined by legislators and partners to expose how PA's tax system shortchanges everyday people, and what we can do about it! We want a #PABudget with sustainable revenue that lowers costs and funds what our communities need! Learn more: pennpolicy.org/pat-for-our-...

Starbucks is the biggest violator of labor law in modern history. That's why organizing unions in our stores is so important! SBWU members have won settlements, reinstatements, backpay, and better conditions after taking action together. That's the union difference ✊

"People are angry the taxes they pay don’t seem to buy anything anymore, while those who benefit the most from the system appear to pay the least, or nothing. That’s an argument for fixing who pays taxes and how the money is used, not tossing people a tax cut as a Band-Aid for a bullet wound."

Thank you to all the legislators who attended our Legislative Breakfast Mixer with @fobaction.bsky.social this #TaxDay to talk about PA’s upside-down tax system and the fight for fair taxation to fully fund our communities! #PABudget

On this #TaxDay, did you know that in 2025 U.S. billionaires got an obscene $1.5 trillion richer? Meanwhile, working Americans got higher costs, fewer services, and stuck wages.

On this #TaxDay, did you know that the Trump-Republican Big Ugly Bill jacks up costs for everyday Americans so much as to outpace the minimal tax benefits that will reach them? #FairTaxesNOW

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC. Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.

On this #TaxDay, did you know that corporations pay a lower effective tax rate than a worker who makes $45,000 a year? #FairTaxesNOW

Taxes are how we build strong communities: Good schools. Safe roads. Health care. But it only works when everyone pays their fair share - and billionaires are not. #FairTaxesNOW
