Nevada Independent article: Nevada Senate rejects film tax credit expansion, killing marquee bill of special session
It means the state won’t be on the hook for setting aside $1.8 billion in tax credits to film industries from 2029 to 2044.
Nevada just rejected giving out $120 million annually in tax credits to the film industry. GOOD.
Nevadans are facing sky-high premiums or losing their health care completely.
We can’t keep giving away money to major corporations while prices are skyrocketing for the rest of us.

NBC News article: Rep. Rob Bresnahan sold stock in several Medicaid providers before voting for cuts
The Pennsylvania Republican is one of several members who have come under scrutiny for stock trading as Congress eyes a potential ban.
They cut our healthcare to pay for tax breaks for the richest 1%.
But first, they quietly dumped their healthcare stock.
Our lives are being toyed with for a money-making scheme.
That's why billionaires and Wall Street are richer than ever while the rest of us struggle.

Some of the billionaires involved with Jeffrey Epstein actually paid him to help them avoid billions in taxes.
Seriously, look up Leon Black.
The wealthy and powerful people in the Epstein files have warped our economy and rigged our system for long enough.
Tax the rich.

We know of ten billionaire associates of Jeffrey Epstein.
They're worth $638.5 BILLION altogether.
And they've spent $410 MILLION influencing our elections since 2010.
This is how the rich and powerful warp our economy and rig our system.
Enough is enough.

David Huerta is being targeted for standing up for immigrants.
When free speech is under attack for one, it's under attack for us all.
The rich and powerful would love to silence our voices—that's why it's so important for us to use them.
We're with SEIU. #JusticeForDavid

47% of Americans now fear they can’t afford health care.
Premiums are about to skyrocket for millions.
The people in charge could have kept that from happening—but they used their opportunity to give billionaires tax breaks instead.
We can't keep going like this, folks.

The Epstein files are about so much more than the disgusting, criminal dealings of one man.
They're about how the rich and powerful are rigging our entire system to give themselves money, cover, and influence.
Buying elections. Warping our economy. Subverting justice.
Enough.

The billionaires in the Epstein files?
They just got a huge tax break from the same people who shielded them from being named.
Our entire economy has been warped to make them richer at our expense.
We need to know who's in the files and how they've rigged our system.
Period.

383 clinical trials for things like COVID-19, cancer, heart disease, and brain disease have lost funding due to NIH cuts.
We could very well lose out on treatments or cures for deadly diseases because Trump needed money for billionaire tax breaks.
This is what's at stake.

Elon Musk's new Tesla pay package is around $100 billion a year.
That's as much as all 3.2 MILLION cashiers in America make.
It's $3 billion MORE than all the elementary teachers make.
It's $46 billion MORE than all the construction workers make.
Tax the damn rich.

Meta paid $16 BILLION in taxes this year, thanks to the corporate minimum tax passed in 2022.
But don't feel bad for them.
That's the exact amount of money they pulled in last year from scam ads.
Corporations can and should be paying much more in taxes.
Period.

The shutdown deal is giving eight Republican senators who were investigated for January 6 the opportunity to sue the Department of Justice for $500,000 apiece.
We're handing millions to politicians while claiming we "can't afford" SNAP or ACA subsidies.
What a joke.

Starbucks' CEO is paid $95.8 MILLION.
The median worker at Starbucks makes $14,674 a year.
Instead of recognizing its worker union, Starbucks writes off its union-busting expenses on its taxes.
That's why Starbucks workers are striking today.
I won't cross the picket line.

Starbucks workers are striking for Red Cup Day.
Starbucks has refused to negotiate with the 12,000 workers who voted to unionize.
Instead, it writes off union-busting efforts on its taxes and paid its CEO $96 MILLION in his first year.
I stand with striking Starbucks workers.

If trickle-down economics worked, we wouldn't be struggling to afford groceries while billionaires reach a record $8 TRILLION in wealth.
If trickle-down economics worked, we wouldn't be struggling to afford healthcare while Wall Street soars.
We've been scammed.

There's a law on the books to make corporations pay taxes on the huge profits they report to shareholders.
The Trump admin has quietly decided not to enforce it.
This de facto corporate tax break will add hundreds of billions to the deficit.
Why is no one talking about this?

While the rest of us had our flights delayed or cancelled, 245,000 private jets took off during October's shutdown.
That's the best month for private jets in 20 years.
The richest 1% of Americans are getting richer.
The rest of us can't afford groceries, rent, or healthcare.

Wall Street heads to White House for dinner with Trump
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, Blackstone Group CEO Stephen Schwarzman among those invited to dine with the president.
Another day, another glitzy White House dinner for the ultra-wealthy on the taxpayer’s dollar.
While prices go up for us, who’s betting the rich will see another tax cut while we lose jobs and healthcare?

Trump wines and dines Wall Street CEOs as Congress is voting to sign away our healthcare for a temporary pause to the government shutdown.
They get the glitzy dinner, we pay the bill. Every time.
