My conversation with @BrakeyshiaSamms at @iteptweets on The Black Tax itep.org/tax-history-ma…
In his new book, @andrewkahrl explores the consequences of inequitable and predatory property tax laws and how Black Americans fought back within this unjust and unbalanced system. @BrakeyshiaSamms talks with Professor Kahrl about his findings here. itep.org/tax-history-ma…
State & local tax codes can do a lot to reduce inequality. But they add to the growing income inequality problem. These regressive tax codes also result in higher tax rates on communities of color, further worsening racial income and wealth divides. itep.org/fairness-matte…
California taxes are near the national average for most families, and low- and moderate-income Californians often pay less than in states like Florida and Texas. But as a share of income, the rates that rich Californians pay are not unusual for Americans. itep.org/is-california-…
What would a ruling for the plaintiffs in tomorrow's Supreme Court case on tent encampments mean for homeless people? This story aims to answer that critical question: vox.com/scotus/2412332…

New @liberation_gen report from @SolanaRice, @JeremieGreer, & me looking at who actually benefits from massive federal tax breaks that are supposed to boost our income, healthcare, education, housing, family care, jobs, and ability to pass down wealth. liberationinageneration.org/separate-unequ…
Nice op-ed by @econ_harris today explaining what's at stake: "Trump wants lower taxes on corporations & wealthy taxpayers...Biden wants the opposite, also backing a plan that will lower the debt more than Trump." Hmmm who will be better for the economy?🤷🏾♀️ thehill.com/opinion/459647…
It’s time states build an economy that works for *everyone* by applying a #BlackWomenBest framework to center Black women in tax policy: cbpp.org/research/state…
These women's work highlighting the importance of Black women in state policy design and analysis helps to make a better future possible for all of us. Follow them. Lift and learn from their work. #CiteBlackWomen #BlackWomenBest
SO MANY brilliant Black women have contributed to my understanding of the #BlackWomenBest principle and its application to our work in state budget & tax. Thank you to @janellecj, @kendrabozarth, @EricaWilli, @Cort_Sand, @IfeFinchFloyd, @DDerbigny, @BrakeyshiaSamms, @TaifaButler.

Ok yes, it's #TaxDay2024. But try to resist the urge to groan about it! This isn’t just a civic duty, it's a civic opportunity. We can use the tax code to seed justice and build more equitable communities. Today’s the day we pitch in on the future we want to see. 🧵
#TaxDay is a reminder of the responsibility we deliver to our country & our neighbors to ensure we all have reliable healthcare, renowned schools, & robust roads. Our investment in this country is an important way for us to secure economic & racial justice for all. #TaxTwitter
Your #TaxDay reminder that better IRS funding has widespread benefits. Wait times have been cut down to three minutes this tax season. And Commissioner Werfel continues to highlight increased scrutiny on complex filers where there’s risk of tax evasion. apnews.com/article/irs-cu…
Too many states take a greater share of income from low- & middle-income families than from the wealthy. But it doesn't have to be this way. On #TaxDay, we're showing how tax systems widen inequality across the country and looking at better ways forward. itep.org/fairness-matte…

Ah the one day everyone believes in science. Hope this trend continues!

@BrakeyshiaSamms @andrewkahrl Great piece, Brakeyshia! Thanks for lifting this book up. Excited to check it out.
New book on my list to read. Fun fact: I started my career working as a data analyst reviewing the tax codes of state and local governments and spent a decade doing tax/fiscal policy work in Georgia. IYKYK, tax policy is connected to everything. Can't wait to dig into this.
It's pub day for The Black Tax! Buy a copy online or at your local bookstore now. You will be shocked and dismayed by the history it tells, and amazed that a book about taxes could actually be engaging and compelling.

New @liberation_gen report from @SolanaRice, @JeremieGreer, & me looking at who actually benefits from massive federal tax breaks that are supposed to boost our income, healthcare, education, housing, family care, jobs, and ability to pass down wealth. liberationinageneration.org/separate-unequ…
On Monday, the Assembly Rev & Tax committee will hear a bill that would eliminate the state tax break for mortgage interest on vacation homes, which would be a small but important step toward making the state’s tax system more fair. 🧵
I think what bothers me specifically is the word “even,” because it implies that it is not generally the case that black people disagree with one another. Which is a dehumanizing implication.
I think most people would be CONFUSED by a sentence like: "ABC's views have been controversial even among other white intellectuals." It wouldn't even make sense, because we intuitively understand that white people have a variety of views. It's just a crazy, racist sentence.
Was reading the wikipedia for a major black intellectual. There's a line that says: "XYZ's views have been controversial even among other black intellectuals." An insane sentence. Can you imagine writing: "ABC's views have been controversial even among other white intellectuals."
