We’re almost ready to call it a close on this year’s legislative session, but there are still two key actions that we’re calling on activists to take.
We’ve passed some great legislation this year, but these bills aren’t law until Governor Ferguson signs them! Can we count on you to start by writing to Governor Ferguson and urging him to sign these bills?
SB 5813 would increase taxes on the capital gains of mega-millionaires and billionaires by adding an additional 2.9% tax on capital gains over $1 million
SB 5794 would close tax loopholes for special interests like gold bullion sellers
HB 2081 would apply an additional 0.5% surcharge on businesses with taxable income over $250 million
This session, your advocacy helped avoid $9.4 billion in cuts to education, health care, housing and other services. Together, we did great work, but we know there are always places for improvement.
Please help us strengthen this movement by filling out our new activist survey. Your insights will help us shape future campaigns, identify what worked best, and improve how we organize and support you. Thanks in advance!
