our tax code is biased

 

I need your help, Common Ills.

Over the last 25 years, significant research has revealed how the United States tax code discriminates against women—especially women with low incomes, people of color, LGBTQ people, immigrants, and women with disabilities.

It is time to end this discrimination that has been enshrined in our tax laws. The ERA will help fix this problem. To get the Senate to act and remove the timeline that is preventing our efforts to FINALLY have the ERA added to the US Constitution, we need to end the filibuster.

So, today, on Tax Day here in the US, please join me in sending a message to Senator Schumer. Bring basic fairness to the tax code. End the filibuster. Add the ERA to the Constitution.

Tell Senate Majority Leader Schumer:
Eliminate gender bias in the tax code

End the Filibuster NOW!

Common Ills, that tax code — largely written by and for a small number of powerful and wealthy white men — works AGAINST women — not for them. But, once the Equal Rights Amendment is added to the Constitution, the federal government will need to update its laws to eliminate gender bias.

The tax code should not be a barrier to equality for all. The ERA can make it so.

So please, help us make this the LAST year the US tax code works against women, people of color, immigrants, LGBTQ people, and families with low income. Sign the petition today! (even if you’ve messaged Senator Schumer before!)

Tell Senate Majority Leader Schumer:
Eliminate gender bias in the tax code

End the Filibuster NOW!

For equality,
