Citizens for Tax Justice

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Citizens for Tax Justice was founded in 1979 with the mission of giving ordinary people a greater voice in the development of tax laws. They state they fight for fair taxes for middle and low-income families, requiring the wealthy to pay their fair share, closing corporate tax loopholes, adequately funding important government services, reducing the federal debt, and taxation that minimizes distortion of economic markets. For instance, in their 2004 report Corporate Income Taxes in the Bush Years, they claimed that many corporations pay zero taxes because of loopholes and lobbying.^[1]
