Rally Comes as Senate Republicans Advance A Disastrous Tax Plan, Which Benefits the Wealthy and Well-Connected at the Expense of Working Families

Washington, D.C. — Yesterday, Senate Republicans voted to advance their disastrous plan that gives tax breaks to the richest Americans and wealthy corporations while raising taxes on the middle class. This plan includes massive tax cuts aimed exclusively at millionaires, billionaires, and wealthy corporations that put public education, job training programs, Medicare, and Medicaid at risk.

In response to the vote to proceed, Not One Penny, along with Tax March, Center For American Progress Action Fund, Americans for Tax Fairness, andCREDO Mobile, will host an all-night rally at the U.S. Capitol with House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, Senators Sanders, Booker, Van Hollen, Murphy, Merkley and other Members of Congress, leaders from progressive organizations, and constituents harmed by the devastating proposal.
