Hi joyce,
Today is Tax Day. And as millions of Americans file, the reality is hard to ignore: nearly 3 in 5 people can’t cover a $2,000 emergency. Families are skipping medical care, cutting groceries, falling behind on rent, and draining their savings just to survive.
That’s not a personal failure. It’s the result of a rigged economy. And it’s why we’re marching on May Day.
No event nearby? Sign-up to host one here.
While working people are being pushed to the brink, CEO pay has skyrocketed—up over 1,000%—while worker pay has barely moved. And just 300,000 households now control $40 trillion in wealth. The economy is working. Just not for working people.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. We know what works. From Massachusetts to Washington State, we’re seeing what happens when we make the rich pay what they owe—lower costs, stronger public services, and real relief for working families. And with 100+ wealth tax bills moving nationwide, the momentum is real.
Now we need to keep going, and that starts with you.
Make your plan for May 1.
Find or host an action near you and help turn momentum into power. Because when billionaires break every rule, it takes all of us, showing up together, to change the rules.
Once you’ve made your plan, here are a few upcoming calls to help you get ready for May 1:
