Hereโ€™s a significant way to impact this fallโ€™s elections and have Republicans lose control of Congress. 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.

This would be a nice bill to pass. While the republicans control the legislature it will never pass.

This may be true. They may win this "battle" but they will lose the "war." Republican representatives will show their true colors if they do not support such a bill and will set up Democrats to win enough elections in November to take control of Congress in 2027.

What is frustrating is how many different orgs are working on all of this and all need money. It would be great if you guys could coordinate with each other. I give to a fault in all areas including law suits. Meanwhile Congress is asking Hegseth to promise he wonโ€™t send military to the poles. Seriously? I donโ€™t think that will be our concernโ€ฆthe federal โ€œobserversโ€ being normalized in big numbers and all the extra cash they have given to ICE is at their disposal to pay a full militia to invade our poles! I know some orgs are organizing to be present in high concern voting areas but they canโ€™t be everywhere at once. If Indivisible would coordinate with their groups we might be able to get a majority of We The People to go to their polling place early on voting day and stay! Itโ€™s all about numbers. They canโ€™t out number us and massive crowds can help make it safer for everyone to vote without intimidation.
