April Briefing: Can the "Money Agenda" Help Un-Rig the System for Working People?

Working people are working harder than before, for less and less. The wealthiest 1% of Americans have more wealth than the entire middle class combined. Meanwhile, the federal minimum wage has not been raised in over 15 years, and the top marginal tax rate has fallen from 91% in the 1950s to 37% today. The tax code has been rewritten — repeatedly — in favor of those who need it least.

Erica Payne, Founder and President of Patriotic Millionaires, joins us to discuss The MONEY Agenda — a four-part policy package aimed at restructuring the tax code and wage floor to work for working people, not just the wealthy.
