Tax the greedy billionaires NOW

Congress can’t let the rich run our country

$7 Trillion

Just 800 billionaires control nearly $7 trillion – more than the bottom half of American households combined.

$1.9 Billion

150 billionaire families donated at least $1.9 billion to PACs and Super PACs during the 2024 election.

Why it matters:

Extreme wealth takes a toll

ECONOMIC GROWTH

Excessive wealth limits opportunity for the rest of us and stunts economic growth.

The white house under a blue sky

DEMOCRACY

The richest Americans manipulate our political system in order to line their own pockets.

Smokestack pollution

CLIMATE

The excessively wealthy profit from fossil fuels as extreme weather devastates our communities.

BY THE NUMBERS:

THE IMPACT WE ALL FEEL

7.6 Million

Billionaire investors are on track to own 7.6 million single-family rental homes by 2030, increasing housing costs for the rest of us.

32%

Private equity takeovers of nursing homes and emergency rooms is driving up healthcare costs by 32%.

– 6 Years

Dropping US life expectancy has put us six years behind the global average, partly due to rising deaths of despair among the working class.

The American Dream is dying in a system where unlimited wealth for the few destroys opportunity for all. It’s time for Congress to confront this dangerous concentration of wealth head-on. We can’t afford to slash the programs that working families depend on—Congress must tax the greedy billionaires now.
