Our democracy has become an oligarchy, a government in which a small group exercises control, especially for corrupt and selfish purposes. Here’s a significant way to impact this fall’s elections. Now is the time to initiate a grassroots campaign to pursue the following. Several Democrats and progressive organizations have compiled separate tax reform proposals. I envision having these proposals consolidated into one bill that will benefit the vast majority of Americans. Having a consolidated bill, "True Tax Reform 2026: The Sequel," introduced to Congress well before this fall's elections will very well influence who individuals vote for based on a candidate's view on this bill. Please share this with your Democratic congressional representatives and others.
This is a list of proposals that can be consolidated into one bill:
Keep Your Pay Act: Cory Booker
Equal Tax Act: Senators Edward Markey, Bernie Sanders, Cory Booker, and Jeff Merkley
Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act: Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Rashida Tlaib
Make Billionaires Pay Their Fair Share Act: Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Ro Khanna
Tax on Extreme Wealth and For the 99.8% Act: Senator Bernie Sanders
Working Americans’ Tax Cut Act: Senator Chris Van Hollen and Representative Don Beyer
The Ultra-Millionaires Tax: Senator Elizabeth Warren, Representatives Brendan F. Boyle and Pramila Jayapal
Defund the Oligarchs Resolution: Senator Elizabeth Warren
American Homeownership Act: Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Jeff Merkley
21st Century ROAD to Housing Act: Senators Elizabeth Warren and Tim Scott
Billionaires Income Tax Act: Senator Ron Wyden and Representatives Donald Beyer and Steve Cohen
The Money Agenda 250: Patriotic Millionaires
The Five & Dime Tax: Tax the Greedy Billionaires
Executive Summary: Excessive Wealth Disorder Institute
Court of International Trade Tariff Refunds: Senators Ron Wyden, Edward J. Markey, and Jeanne Shaheen
The Bipartisan Tax Fairness and Simplification Act of 2011: Senators Ron Wyden and Dan Coates
* Review provisions in H.R. 1 and executive orders- void and add provisions as needed.
What's the course of action Democratic governors plan to take when tRump sends ICE, CBP or the military to their state's polling locations in November? This is what will happen and all Democratic states should have plans in place to react forcefully and in unison, well BEFORE the election.
Is there any truth to the DNC forbidding the use of AI? While I understand the fears and environmental concerns, NOT using AI tools in a responsible manner (de-identified information, for example) to harness the sheer amount of data flowing into the DNC feels like shooting yourselves in the foot. We know for certain the opposition will certainly be using AI to their advantage, and we shouldn’t be shunning a tool that CAN be used ethically and responsibly (and realistically, isn’t going away).

Appreciate your clarification of your role.
Democrats are led by Leaders in the House and Senate that need to be replaced. Until
that is done, where are we?
Americans deserve better.
I would expect the DNC to reflect the desires of its voters and not just corporate donors. Unfortunately, I would be wrong.
