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.
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…
Check out our new report #SeparateAndUnequal to see who our tax code benefits most (spoiler alert - it’s wealthy, white folks) and how we can transform to a #LiberationEconomy that benefits us all.

A coalition of organizations and organizers are announcing a referendum on the Cop City lease. Nsé Ufot is opening the press conference. “Stop Cop City: Let Atlanta Decide” Thread here.
I have a new hero and her name is Mabel Thomas, her works cited is accessible via QR code as she eviscerates some unimaginative minds on Atlanta City Council with solutions. #stopcopcity
“I cannot believe I am standing here, pleading with you not to spend the tax dollars of a Black city, to tear down a forest in a Black neighborhood, to increase the policing & caging of more Black people. All this in a city with Black leadership. It breaks my heart.” #StopCopCity
the Atlanta City Council meeting to deliberate and vote on Cop City funding is starting. It’s incredibly contentious already — there are hundreds of people at City Hall still waiting to speak. They’re not being allowed to; sign up for comment is being cut off.
Also, the "self-sufficiency" narrative is tired and inaccurate. We all rely on each other in one way or another, and we all depend on government. Children cannot be "self-sufficient," yet they are among the most harmed by these punitive policies.

The good, the bad, and the ugly - but at least we defeated #SB233! Check out our #SineDie recap: gbpi.org/sine-die-2023/ @GaBudget #gapol

Problems with Senate Bill 233: A 🧵 First, let's talk dollars. The voucher provides $6,000 per student while Georgia general education public high school students only get $4,365. This voucher acts to prioritize discriminatory private schools over Georgia public schools. #GaPol
While GA must balance the need for UI Trust Fund $ w/ attracting new employers, legislators must also bear in mind that less than 1/2 of new biz survives more than 5 years. So when those workers lose jobs from new biz that failed, some will seek UI benefits that GA must pay for.
Ultimately, while certain provisions w/in HB 518, SB 160 & SB 190 restore some DOL admin $, other provisions would further risk the solvency of GA's UI Trust Fund, weakening a UI safety net in need of more state investments to increase resiliency to protect GA workers. #gapol
Takeaways from today’s #StateOfTheState: 1) Pleased to hear priorities to expand GA’s workforce pipeline, including more investments to train K-12 teachers, more college affordability thru HOPE funding covering 100% of tuition & a commitment to strengthen the healthcare wkforce
“Women, especially women of color, are most impacted by the childcare crisis. We need to think about childcare as a public good.” - @IfeFinchFloyd #Insights23
"We have to have a conversation about how to recover from COVID from a health care standpoint and how to improve our health care so that it's not causing more economic burden for people living in Georgia." - Sherrell Byrd #Insights23
People are required to work to receive access to important benefits, yet Georgia has the lowest min wage in the nation. As Alicia Johnson of @StepUpSavannah said - it costs more to be poor. #insights23
It costs an estimated $10-20k annually to raise a kid in the U.S. Get some of it back by claiming the #ChildTaxCredit through Nov. 15. #GetCTCGA
