Americans across the country took to the streets this Tax Week, demanding their hard-earned dollars go to health care, food assistance, and lowering costs — not billionaire handouts or foreign wars.
Here’s what it looked like:
That's absurd.

"Like birds of a feather, criminals with similar convictions flock together. Dozens of people convicted of defrauding the government and private investors have been pardoned by Trump, many after donating to his campaign or providing support to his family businesses."

"Trump’s priority elections bill has languished in the Senate for the past several weeks, but that hasn’t stopped lawmakers in several red states from introducing similar changes for their elections."

They really thought a staged DoorDash moment would cover up real pain.
Trump confirmed it last night…
PA state representative Rabb speaks at a press conference in a brightly lit rotunda inside the PA capitol building.
PA state representative Fiedler speaks at a press conference, with a group of legislators standing behind her. It’s a wide shot, and you can see TV cameras in the foreground.
Kristin Crowell speaks at a press conference, using her hands to gesture passionately.
A group of 11 legislators and advocates stand for a posed photo, all smiling.
This #TaxDay, we were joined by legislators and partners to expose how PA's tax system shortchanges everyday people, and what we can do about it!
We want a #PABudget with sustainable revenue that lowers costs and funds what our communities need!

A settlement letter from Starbucks, mailed to a Starbucks worker. "Dear Jacklyn, we are writing to confirm that your Documented coaching... has been removed from your partner file and will not be used in any way against your employment in accordance with a recent NLRB settlement."
Starbucks is the biggest violator of labor law in modern history.
That's why organizing unions in our stores is so important!
SBWU members have won settlements, reinstatements, backpay, and better conditions after taking action together. That's the union difference ✊
People stand in a room, smiling and talking to each other.

Thank you to all the legislators who attended our Legislative Breakfast Mixer with @fobaction.bsky.social this #TaxDay to talk about PA’s upside-down tax system and the fight for fair taxation to fully fund our communities! #PABudget
"Today, the Trump administration is aggressively seeking to restrict access to the ballot box and undermine public confidence in elections, posing a serious threat to our democracy."

Trump heading underwater in the polls with white, no college voters really shows that a steady diet of culture war issues specifically directed at them for a decade can be eventually be overcome by stupid wars and personal economic pain. For some, but still not the cultists.
On this #TaxDay, did you know that in 2025 U.S. billionaires got an obscene $1.5 trillion richer?
Meanwhile, working Americans got higher costs, fewer services, and stuck wages.
On this #TaxDay, did you know that the Trump-Republican Big Ugly Bill jacks up costs for everyday Americans so much as to outpace the minimal tax benefits that will reach them?
#FairTaxesNOW
On this #TaxDay, did you know that corporations pay a lower effective tax rate than a worker who makes $45,000 a year?

Taxes are how we build strong communities:
Good schools. Safe roads. Health care.
But it only works when everyone pays their fair share - and billionaires are not.

LISTEN: Kristen Crowell was on Chew's Views today to discuss all the things that we could be doing with the billions of dollars Trump is instead wasting on his reckless war of choice in Iran👇

For too long, our tax code asked the most of those with the least. Today, that changes. In a historic move for tax fairness in Maine, Governor Mills just signed a millionaire tax into law as part of the state's supplemental budget. #mepolitics
It's great to see Democratic governors pushing back on Trump's fascist voter suppression maneuvers 👇

This Tax Day, working people are paying more and getting less, while the billionaire class is rolling in massive tax breaks thanks to President Trump and the Republicans in Congress.

"Some of the country’s wealthiest corporations are calculating they owe far less to the IRS as a result of Trump’s overhauled tax code, underscoring how a law billed as a middle‑class cut also turned out to be a big win for Corporate America."

The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.
A madman has control of the most powerful military in the history of the world and the leaders of his party are too afraid to say or do anything to stop him.
Trump uses vote by mail because it's easy, safe, secure and saves time.
He just doesn't think you should be able to use it - and he'll lie through his teeth trying to take it away.
