Turn Your Tax Cuts into Tax Fairness

NEW YORK, NY//March 10, 2008///George W. Bush inherited a $5.1 trillion 10-year budget surplus and gave most of it away in tax cuts for wealthy taxpayers. Now the surplus is long gone, Americans face a $239 billion annual deficit and over $8 trillion of national debt, and wealthy taxpayers are still pocketing huge tax cuts. Meanwhile, Bush, McCain and others want to make these cuts permanent! What’s your share of the tax cuts? What can you do about it? Find out at http://www.ResponsibleWealth.org.

Using Responsible Wealth’s online calculator, you can estimate your tax savings from the Clinton and Bush-era tax cuts and donate those savings to tax fairness efforts. This year’s Pledge will benefit the Tax Fairness Organizing Collaborative, an eighteen-state coalition that fights to preserve progressive taxation.
