Thanks @hardlynormal! Hopefully this won’t be the last time you let me run my mouth on camera. We can’t solve the problem if we diagnosis it incorrectly. People who are unhoused need help paying rent. Next step - gathering the political will to make it happen.

My bf and I have a tradition we’ve started since moving to DC where we broil a TON of oysters every Friday & eat them in the kitchen together like monsters before they’ve barely cooled. I look forward to it every single week. Happy Oyster Friday, y’all.
If you don’t have a safe place to call home, nothing in your life works — and your only choice may be to sleep in a public space. To make that illegal is to make a person illegal.

I hold in my heart the families in TX expecting to receive their first #guaranteedincome payments tomorrow. I wish and work for us all to live in a country where we finally recognize we all do better when we all do better. texastribune.org/2024/04/23/tex…
"As for fixing the immediate problems with property tax administration and enforcement...Ensuring that these laws are applied fairly and without favor won’t solve these problems, for the laws themselves are the problem." Will def be picking up a copy of @andrewkahrl's new book.

LA and KY’s “tough-on-crime” bills take an ineffective approach to crime that harms individuals & their families & further expands bloated state corrections budgets. Lawmakers should invest in basic needs to help drive down crime and help everyone thrive. cbpp.org/blog/tough-on-…
Research underscores the positive effects of #EITCs and #ChildTaxCredits for Black women. These credits reduce poverty, help pay for essentials, and promote healthy child development, enhancing economic security for Black women & children. @CenterOnBudget cbpp.org/research/state…
Unjust systems are acting exactly as designed. Policy action must center what works for the people harmed most by racism and discrimination. Otherwise we will get the same old, same old crappy results - which means Black women keep working extra hard and getting much less.

This report is nothing short of tremendous. Amazing work by @WhitTucks who poured so much heart and soul into it, not only coming w/ the receipts but charting a compelling vision of what states can accomplish when applying #BlackWomenBest frameworks. Congratulations, Whitney!!

This must-read brief from @WhitTucks powerfully describes how a policy framework that prioritizes Black women in U.S. politics and policymaking, given their historical economic exploitation, can build equitable institutions and boost collective prosperity for everyone.

An economy that uplifts and invests in black women is an economy that uplifts all. Lots of gems in here for policy makers to consider implementing a #BlackWomenBest framework in their decision making. Great report @WhitTucks

Appreciating this analysis from my colleague @WhitTucks on how tax policies that support Black women improve outcomes for everyone. Several housing-related recs in there, from circuit-breaker tax credits to incentivizing deeply affordable housing development.

Interviewed @andrewkahrl about his book on the history of the property tax system & its structural defects that have led to widespread discrimination against Black people. This is a vital book for understanding the intersection of race & tax. #TaxTwitter itep.org/tax-history-ma…
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.
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…
@WhitTucks @janellecj @kendrabozarth @EricaWilli @Cort_Sand @IfeFinchFloyd @DDerbigny @BrakeyshiaSamms Honored to be in that number! Thanks for your leadership and work to advance @WhitTucks!
Some brilliant folks on this list!
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.
Here's the first look at One Hundred Years Of Solitude — the new series adapted from Gabriel García Márquez's masterpiece novel. In the mythical town of Macondo, the Buendía family confronts a curse, madness and impossible love.
Research underscores the positive effects of #EITCs and #ChildTaxCredits for Black women. These credits reduce poverty, help pay for essentials, and promote healthy child development, enhancing economic security for Black women & children. @CenterOnBudget cbpp.org/research/state…
Unjust systems are acting exactly as designed. Policy action must center what works for the people harmed most by racism and discrimination. Otherwise we will get the same old, same old crappy results - which means Black women keep working extra hard and getting much less.
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…
My brilliant sister is one of the minds behind this!!! Want to know what’s best for all? Ask a Black woman.
Applying a #BlackWomenBest framework that addresses the economic well-being of Black women would allow policymakers to address the systemic harm and build prosperity for all. More from @WhitTucks:
New analysis from @WhitTucks highlights how states can build an economy that works for everyone by centering Black women in tax policy decisions. #BlackWomenBest cbpp.org/research/state…
Building equitable & thriving economies starts with addressing the historical marginalization of Black women in policy decisions. @WhitTucks explains how applying a #BlackWomenBest framework to state tax policy will lead to better outcomes for all people: cbpp.org/research/state…

@WhitTucks @janellecj @kendrabozarth @EricaWilli @Cort_Sand @IfeFinchFloyd @DDerbigny @BrakeyshiaSamms @TaifaButler That’s a good group right there!
Appreciating this analysis from my colleague @WhitTucks on how tax policies that support Black women improve outcomes for everyone. Several housing-related recs in there, from circuit-breaker tax credits to incentivizing deeply affordable housing development.
States should prioritize Black women’s well-being in their tax codes by: ✅Promoting income stability for Black women ✅Shifting how revenue policies influence wealth-building ✅Enacting bolder, fairer, revenue-raising policies ✅Removing barriers to raising add'l revenue
It's no coincidence that the #INLegis Tax Task Force has no Black women members and so far has neglected to focus on proposals for more equitable tax reform, such as a state Child Tax Credit, renter tax credit, or property tax circuit breakers. Thank you @WhitTucks & @janellecj!

An economy that uplifts and invests in black women is an economy that uplifts all. Lots of gems in here for policy makers to consider implementing a #BlackWomenBest framework in their decision making. Great report @WhitTucks
