We're a group of American millionaires fighting to tax the rich, pay the people, and spread the power!
Since the Citizens United decision in 2010, the ultra-rich are spending record amounts in our elections.
And as donors spend more & more in elections, fewer & fewer candidates without big money behind them have what it takes to compete on equal footing. www.levernews.com/vance-v-demo...

Vance v. Democracy
The Supreme Court will consider a GOP-led case against campaign spending limits that critics suggest will open the door to quid pro quo corruption.

BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

A rigged economy for the ultra-rich, plus decades of tax and wage policy failures, led us to this moment.
Nearly half of full-time workers in America fail to earn a living wage.
No wonder workers are stressed when they cannot afford basic essentials.

Affordability isn’t a “hoax.”
Families across the country say the cost of groceries, utilities, housing, and health care is squeezing their budgets — and many worry their situation will get worse.

Here's why everyone's talking about a 'K-shaped' economy
A big reason the term is popping up so often is that it helps explain an unusually muddy and convoluted period for the U.S. economy.

Our tax code gives preferential tax treatment to investment income.
Right now, wealthy investors are paying a lower tax rate on their income than working people pay on theirs by taxing investment income at the lower rate than earned income.
Let that sink in.
