An Open Letter

To: Sen. Padilla, Rep. Panetta, Pres. Trump, Sen. Schiff

From: A constituent in Santa Cruz, CA

April 16

Tax the rich! Make them pay their fair share. Please thank Senator Grassley, Senator Cramer and any other Congress member considering sunsetting the $4T tax giveaway to the people who need it least. The average American is suffering, with over 60% of us living paycheck to paycheck. One car accident, surprise medical bill, or family tragedy away from bankruptcy and even homelessness. The wealth gap between the richest and poorest Americans is the largest it’s ever been in the history of our country. This is bad for the economy, restricts consumer spending, restricts social mobility, and discourages trade, investment and hiring. All of which dampen GDP growth and makes boom/bust cycles more likely. Thank you for your hard work for the American people.
