"Big corporations are planning to dump millions of dollars into the 2026 elections. As long as we allow corporate money to flood our political system, Washington will continue to fail working families. I refuse to take corporate PAC money and I’m working to ban it completely." - Senator Mark Kelly

Yes, we need a wealth tax on billionaires. #TaxBillionaires

Last year, surveillance giant Palantir paid $0 in federal income tax despite making $1.5 billion, partly due to new tax cuts in Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill. They cut Medicaid and SNAP to pay for this. This monstrosity must be reversed. Read more: https://bit.ly/3MwQp5i

Trump is not trying to make your life easier or more affordable. He's listening to the giant tax prep companies and their millions, not you. Read more here: https://bit.ly/46upfml #TaxJustice

Kristen Crowell was on Chew's Views to discuss her efforts to humanize the impacts of the Big Ugly Bill and to counter Trump's #SOTU lies by amplifying the voices of real Americans who have been hurt by this administration's cruel policy choices. Listen here: bit.ly/4aEYmyx #TaxJustice

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

“Last night’s address taxed peoples’ tolerance for utter nonsense, as the president relied on inflammatory and grandiose language to distract from the truth," said Kristen Crowell. Read more here: bit.ly/4rfQs3L #SOTU

Farmers were promised $400 million in drought aid. Trump’s USDA ghosted them. More than a year later, not a penny has been spent, and no one knows what happened to the money.

Trump said costs are going down in the #SOTU, which was just another lie 👇 "Whose daily costs have gone up in the last year?” Kristen Crowell asked the assembled guests and audience members at last night’s “State(s) of the Union” town hall in Washington. Everyone’s hand shot up. “100 percent.”

This may be the best SOTU response in...ever? Nailing all the right points: affordability, ICE abuses, corruption, Epstein. Not sure it matters, but Spanberger is providing Dems a good template for assailing Trump and offering alternative values and policies.

I read this article last night and it's a compelling argument. At least once America is ready to acknowledge that removing Trump from office has to be the goal. I'm there but not I'm sure how many others are yet.

“A show of hands: whose daily costs have gone up in the last year?” Families Over Billionaires Executive Director Kristen Crowell asked the assembled guests and audience members at last night’s “State(s) of the Union” town hall in Washington. Everyone’s hand shot up. “100 percent.” #SOTU

Congratulations, NewYork-Presbyterian nurses! They overwhelmingly ratified a new contract and will return to work next week!

Satra Taylor, a doctoral student in MD, says that slashing the Pell Grants that enabled her and many more people like her to go to college will set young people back even further. “This administration eliminated critical student loan programs during a horrible college affordability crisis." #SOTU

Wintana Melekin from MN said people pulled together to help those targeted by brutal ICE actions. “I should never have to be creating an underground network to get people groceries. I should never have to be advocating for Americans to get due process...Minnesotans are standing strong.” #SOTU

Around 90% of the families Armett Newman works with rely on federal child care subsidies to afford tuition, and she says that Trump's cuts to child care will force many of those parents — including nurses, teachers, and other essential workers — to stop working and pull their children out. #SOTU

Yes, isn't it interesting? #TaxJustice

Dr. Aisha Harris, a family physician in Flint, Michigan, warned all of us about the lies we are about to hear in the #SOTU tonight: "America is sick. Patients are not better off. Families are not better off, and that's the real state of our union."

The Trump EPA has fully abandoned its duty to protect the American people from greenhouse gas pollution and climate change. The only winners from this are Trump’s fossil fuel billionaire megadonors. Read more here: https://bit.ly/4tQVu92 #TaxBillionaires

"A small GOP rebellion is unleashing a flood of House votes on Trump’s tariff policies in the coming weeks — handing Democrats a powerful tool to hammer Republicans on affordability issues ahead of the November midterms."

Tuesday is the State of the Union. Trump's scripted speech will tell one story. The reality Americans are living will tell another. Join us the day before #SOTU, Mon. Feb. 23, 6:30pm ET, for "State(s) of the Union: For the People, Not Billionaires" to hear stories from families across the country.

Right-wingers will fear-monger all day long about these state "Millionaires Tax" ballot measures, but the numbers show they yield very positive results. #TaxJustice

My health insurance went up 21% this year. Nearly every American is paying more, because Republicans in Congress cut our health care to pay for tax breaks to billionaires. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos Pass it on

"The move signals the organization’s evolution from a coalition focused on the 2025 budget fight into a permanent national force for economic populism via fair taxes that unites working people – who Dems have struggled to reach recently – in order to achieve real change." Read more: bit.ly/46X7D2p

“The fight for economic fairness intensified the moment the deeply unpopular OBBBA was signed into law,” said Kristen Crowell, Executive Director of Families Over Billionaires. #TaxJustice

Wake up and look around. Our society is breaking down due to the endless greed of the billionaire class. Nearly every problem is a direct result of their actions or inaction or shameful, disgusting hoarding of money. #TaxBillionaires

Rep. Brendan Boyle said that while Americans are suffering, the president isn’t focused on the cost-of-living crisis. “He’s talking about building the greatest ballroom ever to be seen. He’s talking about building his arch, the ‘Arc de Trump,’ Boyle said. “But he’s not talking about that.”

Companies like Starbucks are scared of workers unionizing because when we take action together, we can win material change instead of empty promises. After taking action, these baristas won their union despite Starbucks trying hard to stop workers from organizing! ✊

Politicians need to stop being afraid of raising taxes on the ultra-wealthy. The American people overwhelmingly support it. #TaxBillionaires

Chocolate covered strawberries are a great #ValentinesDay treat. Let's give a cheer for workers like "Eva" who was laboring in Ventura County CA. She had to trudging through slippery muddy rows to bring this sweet fruit to our table. #WeFeedYou

Democracy dies in oligarchy. #TaxBillionaires

"Republicans took away healthcare from millions to pay for making ICE the highest-funded law enforcement agency in America. Seriously -- they gave ICE an extra $75 billion in the Big Beautiful Bill that slashed healthcare. What a load of crap." - Rep. Chris Deluzio #TaxJustice

Everyone needs to understand this. #TaxBillionaires

Everyone needs to understand this. #TaxBillionaires

New from @nealemahoney.bsky.social & Chad Maisel: If everything feels harder than it should—canceling a subscription, fixing a bill, getting a refund—you’re not imagining it. We call that the Annoyance Economy, & it costs families $165 billion a year in wasted time & money.

"We will be litigating the impacts of The Big Ugly Bill and holding folks accountable for taking away healthcare from Americans and cutting food assistance in order to fund a rogue government agency that wears masks while terrorizing our communities and kidnapping our neighbors." - Kristen Crowell

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

The numbers are almost hard to fully comprehend: Jeff Bezos makes in one week what the Washington Post loses in 5 years. And yet he laid off one-third of the newspaper's staff today. All while avoiding billions in taxes. Welcome to the oligarchy. #TaxBillionaires

If Starbucks won’t respect workers at the bargaining table, they don’t deserve our clicks or orders. Our call to action is simple: 📱 Delete the Starbucks app. #DeleteTheApp bit.ly/deletetheapp

Here's how ordinary people are mobilizing and organizing civil resistance in real time. www.altrightdelete.news/p/with-a-lit...

My health insurance went up 21% this year. Nearly every American is paying more, because they cut our health care to pay for tax breaks to billionaires and more ICE thugs. #FundHealthcareOverICE

The GOP Congress set aside $800 million in bonuses for ICE, with individual payouts up to $50,000. Meanwhile, the average American bonus is around $2,500, if you even get one. They can’t fund healthcare because they are lining the pockets of an agency that is terrorizing our communities.

He's now pretty much screaming the quiet part out loud. When someone shows you they are an authoritarian dictator, believe them the first time. Read more here: https://bit.ly/4aeYZ0l #TrumpCoupAttempt

We’ll keep it short and sweet: Kevin Warsh is a disastrous choice to oversee monetary policy as Chair of the Federal Reserve.
